What does crying mean?

[jeremiahj13]

Is there a difference between weeping and crying?

If a couple tears fall down, does that constitute as crying? How about bawling? Does bawling differ from crying or weeping?

 

[Ed the Ned]

Just my opinion: Weeping is when sorrow is involved and crying is the act of tears coming out of your eyes. I think you can weep without crying.

 

[jeremiahj13]

so if a sad movie is on, and I have 2 tears fall, is this crying?

If you're sad and water comes out of your face you are crying.

 

[Sparkey]

What is the shortest sentence of the bible?

Crying means that society has taught their young men false concepts about manhood.
Crying means our sons and daughters are taught lies.
Crying means we are not allowed to express emotions and must turn our sadness into anger.

I am crying even now.

~Sparrowhawke
Lord, hear my cry.

...what does it mean?

From an infant...mom knows what it means!
From a child....mother knows what is best!
From a teenager....parents know when it is fake!
From an adult....either something is wrong or they are paid to cry!

Beyond that...there is spiritual side of crying...

Psalms 34:17
17 The righteous cry, and the LORD heareth,
and delivereth them out of all their troubles. KJV

Proverbs 21:13
13 Whoso stoppeth his ears at the cry of the poor,
he also shall cry himself, but shall not be heard. KJV
