To the Demon the lords and ladies of this unseen realm said:
I have seen many men who have shed tears. Though I find it quite touching (considering the circumstances), most of the time, I find crying men rather sappy!
Sorry to say guys, but crying men are a big no-no for me.
- Madam Ailin of Aalborg -
Tears belong to both men and women, thus, they should be shed, according to psychologists, by both.
Some ladies are put off by a man's tears as much as some men are put off by a lady's giggles.Life offers both options.
- Count Byron, Intangible father to the Demon -
Now that is an interesting thought.
- Lady of Thoughts, Lady Aida -
Apasalahnya kalau nangis pun...kata manusia...mesti ada perasaan kan..kan...
- Madam Mak Lang, A Mother that reminds me of my own -
Mommy bilang menangis tu bagus untuk kita.Bila kita menangis, hati kita jadi lembut, tak keras macam batu.
Bila kita menangis, tak bermakna kita lemah.
Bila kita menangis, hati kita jadi kuat sebab semua perkara-perkara negatif akan ikut keluar dari system kita bersama airmata kita.
Therefore, it's okay to cry melord...
- Lady of the East, Lady Rinn -
I think, for a man to be in tears does not take away the dignity. It takes real strength to be able to shed a tear or two. For a show of even the simplest of emotion is generally viewed as *not manly*. But why should there be a double standard between a man and a woman?
That is society's crap.
Everybody deserves to shed a tear or two.A man who whines is the man with less dignity, not the man who shed the tear. Shed the tear... and then be brave to move forward on a more positive mode and outlook.

Beads of a Man's Shame
(continued as at 30th of November 2007)
___________ooOoo___________

THEY say, the most priceless of all things in the world is the tears of a smiling man.
It is priceless as a man should never shed no tears, for if he ever does, than the man has left his chest shy form any sort of honor and that emptiness is replaced by shame.
The value of a smiling man tears, is further expanded by the fact that it is the rarest of the rarest possession of a man and to lose it would mean he has lost all that has gave meaning to word dignity.
The price is further more intensified by the fact if a smiling man shed his tears, he has rape dry the purity of his inner strength making him lost all rights and meanings of being a man.
Thus, that be the reasons that those tears were given a solemn name.
The Beads of a Man's Shame.
A fairly unfair name for a unfortunate son in a justly unjust game of life...
If, what is being said by the dwellers of Mine about the value of the Beads of A Man Shame is true, than it would mean that, the Smiling Man of Hidden Sadness is the richest poorest man in this world of should nots.
The Smiling Man of Hidden Sadness, is man who has everything that he owns not.
All that he owns is the birthrights of others, even the air that he breathe and the freedom that he has.
He leads a life filled with ironies that it makes the most sour stale fruits taste like the luxuriant dish of haven.
True to the truest of tales, that the Smiling Man of Hidden Sadness is the richest of all man in Mine.
In the Edict of Mine, it is stated that, everything in this world comes with a price, but none should ever shy the price of happiness.
That Edict of Mine should also be read with a Bylaws of Being in Mine which stated that; Happiness in Mine should be in the form of Happiness of Others that should be nurtured trough unquestionable self sacrifice.
The underlying translation to both of these, could be found in the superseding Collectively Agreed Mine's Code of Life by the Higher Lords of the Whites, Blacks and Grey (Common Rule of Mine).
One of the Common Rule stated; Happiness can never be owned but granted to any man or resident of Mine can only when the Lords of Whites, Blacks and Greys have collectively agreed, under their own understandings, the definition of happiness.
These governing phrase of Mine makes happiness second only, if not at par, with the value of the Beads of a Man's Shame, and, by that means, can only equally bartered with them.
No man could live in Mine or whatever world there is without happiness. But what is this thin called happiness?
In the eyes of the Smiling Man of Hidden Sadness, happiness comes in the form of the sweetest, most sincere and purest smiles on the face of those he love.
But these smiles, are truly tricksters in disguise. They are much similar in nature like the beautiful Rose, sweet, beautiful but thorny. To truly hold a rose, one should bear the pain of its thorns.
To truly have those smiles, one have to bear the bitterness of losing one wanting.
The Smiling Man of Hidden Sadness must fore go all of the wants that he has as a man, just to have a glimpse and just to have a tiny taste of happiness.
"Thy gold and fold are Sirens of the Sea, Whereas The One You Took Lightly is where thy reward be"
Understood Verse 15 of the 64th Chapter of the Book that We Ignore
Ah yes... one's gold and one's fold are Sirens of the Sea.
Beautiful they might be, truthfully to treacherous waters they lead the unwary be.
Important they are, potent they are more.
Careful if we not, in pain one would be.
Such is the fate of The Smiling Man of Hidden Sadness, his fold and his gold be his undying need.
The gold is for the fold, and the fold is for the gold.
For as long as he can remember, both he could no never let go from his heart's hold; and for the same length of time, all that are his, is all that is theirs.
A sweet sad sojourning existence in Mine.
Said the Man that We Left Being Dead:
"The Plane of Mortals is sweet and green (alluring) and verily,
The One You Took Lightly will send thee vicegerent;
to see the manner thy act.
Wary thy be of The Crooked Rib Bone, verily, It is the first trial for the Proud Sons of Slaves".

Over time, the Urge of Man seeps trough the The Smiling Man of Hidden Sadness.
In the beginning, this urging is as pure and innocent as the morning drops of dews. To him, the fulfillment of this urge must be done accordingly to the Codes of Haven, in which, its adherence would be the peace for the fold and bring the feast of gold.
At least, that is what he believe to be true.
But as the sands of time bulks in to towering Stones of Age, this believe has been scrape bits by bits by bits.
The man who undyingly believe this adherence would bring him closer to an eternal freedom, now beginning to die little by little as the happiness he seeks turns slowly in to an unwanted sadness.
Why? He ask both haven and hell, must it be as it be.
Only to be given a silent answer...

ANSWER ME THIS
-o0o-
beloved friends tell me please,
if it is the end of this beginning be the root to your ease,
or,
it is the beginning of this end that would spawn your bliss,
tell me so that for you I may wheel,
a path for this tale and banish all crease,
but,
what ever it is that you wish,
feed my mind with thoughts as a dish,
and give strength to my soul to bring a dot to mark a finish.

THE LOUDNESS OF SILENCE
-o0o-
Child,
if you keep pacing the mile,
this world will show its wild,
where one's thirst be quenched only by bile,
sieve from the Pharaohs' Nile,
and only tears be the pillars of a smile,
a smile paved by guile.
But Child,
if you stop and sit for a while,
and takes breaths that ever so mild,
you would see trough all of the lies,
that hid the colors of a butterfly,
freeing the world's inner cry,
a cry that bring tears to Gabriel's eye.
And Child,
listen ever so carefully to that cry,
listen to the loudness that has never shy,
listen as it comes from a heart that you could not buy,
listen so that you would know why,
listen so that your tears would dry,
listen so that you know bed where the world lie.
And find the loudness of silence in you and I.
