The BAWWWWW thread

I felt bad for some of these, yet no tears came out . That 10th grade all the way to the funeral, I wished he said he loved her beforehand for instance. Poems I'm not always into because I have to be in a mood for them. The ducks was messed up. After watching all the attempts to make me sad(some I skipped because it's rehashed), I didn't shed a tear because I'm not in that situation. However, some of these Bawwww stuff did remind me of my deceased cousin and the poor little kitten I accidentally ran over with a lawnmower. I guess I do have a soul when it involves me or if someone I care about is in pain.


Here's some examples of what really gets me riled up easily.....

-A cute animal, or an action by a cute animal.

-A young innocent child saying "I love you" can make me say "Awwww" and shed a tear; especially if I've had it rough.

-A person who shows concern and kindness towards me makes me want to pay him/her back unconditionally.

-If someone I care of accomplishes something, I want to be happy for them. That kinda gets me all teared up because I care about them despite feeling unsure if I should be doing more. (Hence when I like certain posts on peeps on 8way like HRD's wedding, I wish the best for them despite us having a relationship like online acquaintances. I could like a honest answer from a jerk. I'm extremely affectionate to my friends and family too.)

Surprisingly love and happiness does it more for me than sadness. I don't wish to be sad or be reminded of a sad past. Just cherishing and loving life with support makes me shed some tears. I think I've rambled quite a lot, but the point is I care to an extent.

Esther Stern Testimony

From here until about 19:25 is the most moving part IMO.

I was actually looking everywhere for a recording or video of Sara Moses, who had just turned 7 when her camp was liberated. When I heard her story several years ago I cried like a little girl. I was only able to find some quotes in articles about her though:

"Out of necessity, I developed a rich, strong, imaginary world that helped me to survive the horrors that were to come. I used what I had. I had my hands. I imagined that the fingers on my hand had faces. I gave each one of them names. My fingers became my family."

...

"I would single out one of the lice, imagining it was going home to its mommy with good food waiting for it."

...

At Bergen-Belsen, Moses said, she remembers "seeing a skeletal person living on the floor across from me chewing on a dry bone—I was envious, I wanted that bone."

...

"We had to lie on the floor among the dead and dying bodies," she said. "This was the lowest point of my life."

...

When the British came, "they found thousands and thousands of dead, grotesque bodies. This is where they found me. The very first English word I ever heard was 'a baby, a baby.' I was a skeleton on the floor, unable to move, in critical condition. Only 7, and so small they thought I was a baby.

"One of the soldiers who saved me came to visit me every day in the hospital. He was so awed by this baby that had survived."

In one visit, Moses said, the soldier brought her a doll, drawing markers and some candy.

"This was the best gift I ever had," she said.

I'm still trying to contact various holocaust museum curators and radio show hosts to see if I can get her actual testimony. If you don't break down at that, there's no hope for you.
 
IDK if anyone is still watching this, but I can't let it die without at least posting these. I can't believe I almost forgot them.

Thai life insurance commercials will destroy you.






I don't even know which is the saddest to put as the final challenge, and I don't know how people in Thailand can even watch TV with this kind of stuff on.
