Another one of Kabir's I love is:
Kabira Soi Peer hai, Jo Jabai Par Peer
Jo Par Peer na Janeyai,
So Kaffir Bepeer

I think woman not only knows her own pain but also the pain of others that are in her charge and so her heart  pours  forth in the form of tears

Hullo Girdhar

We do at times fail to show the intensity of love felt by us.  Kabir's assertion that anyone who masters this art is truly a Pandit is true.

" " idea... take it from someone who is as hard as nails and can fight with the best of them " - can a veteran  US Marine be otherwise?

Ability to shed a tear or two is an unmistakable sign of a pure soul lacking in guiles and hypocrisy.  It is humility.

How is your 'bike riding bad boy' of a son now?

Sceptic,

I liked it, that was nice.  And as for the "no tears..." idea... take it from someone who is as hard as nails and can fight with the best of them... sometimes shedding a tear is the most human thing you can do.  By shedding a tear you are avoiding the shattering of your soul...

Hullo Supriya

" No tears!!! Chin up and fight it. "


No tears and chin up is indeed a statement of grit, but the fighting part sounds ominous..  Given the central role of woman in man's scheme of things it could be uncomfortable for both to say the least, and disastrous at worst.

A tear is a useful phenomenon, as anyone forced to use tear drops for the eyes would vouch.  It is not a sign of weakness, but stress release mechanism at work.  In its success lies the secret of happiness of mutually dedicated pairs.  For a mind in prayer a tear is the peak of communion, a sure sign of surrender to the Deity.
