    I learned a lot of these songs as a kid. My neighbor was the candy lady and her husband was Mr. Carl. Mr. Carl use to blast classics all night from his patio. The moon and music would come through my window 🎶

      Crying comes so easy for some people. Sometimes, I'll look at people and they're all teary eyed. I'm feeling things but I'm like is there something wrong with me. I think I just have dry eyes or something because tears sure don't flow easily- not when I'm mad or sad. Too bad because I think crying is cathartic

    This is foundational music. As a young man, it helped me grow realistic and loving expectations for my future relationships.
    Yes, as a youngin' making mistakes I used it to seduce. But later I used it to heal. This is one of those songs that helped me aspire to truly have a woman and grow into man.
    I cried burying my wife with this song in my head. I cried years later singing this when the Lord blessed me with my fiance. Eddie and Walter are simply untouchable. Thank you brothers.

      @tboneivd85 2 ปีที่แล้ว +9

      @@kevinodonkor4123 Sorry, I just saw this. Growing up in my day, there wasn't any discussion of a man having emotions. I started to think about balance: how to express the strong masculinity I felt every moment while also being able to share human feelings with a woman.
      I came to understand how critical love, respect, and mutual sacrifice is to a relationship. After observing older men trapped in a never ending cycle of seduction, I started wondering how many times do I need to prove to myself that I could seduce women? That powerful urge can eventually become a life destroying curse.
      I started to not just believe I could be faithful to a woman I love, but to demand it from myself. I wanted something more than conquering, I wanted partnership. But partnership doesn't come when sought, it happens when you grow yourself and don't seek relationship-- but are open to it.
      Women can sense true confidence and true desperation. Become a true believer in yourself without tipping over to arrogance and real pheromones are released. At that point pray for wisdom in chosing someone you can trust, respect, care for, and if need be lay down your life for. Sex is powerful by itself, but when a spirit is shared it becomes so much more, a reflection of God's design.
      If you keep seeking, learning, and demanding better of yourself (while forgiving the inevitable mistakes) your life will become richer and richer and you will be a mighty blessing to your family.
      Manhood is a journey, you're off to a great start trying to avoid making all the same mistakes others have made. You will make some along the way, but if those mistakes are survivable and not repeated, they grow you.
      I'm excited for your life and growth! I'm late 50s and still working to grow. Your desire for and work towards being a good man will be greatly rewarded. Be blessed young brother!

      @@sbella6719 Yes! So important to learn along the way that knowledge can be used for good as well as selfishness. Sexuality is a doorway we too often stop at, without entering into the reward of mutual spirituality.
      There are some things we do to each other that can't be repaired. However, when we can trust each other enough to cry together, we can grow, repair some mistakes, and become what the Creator gifted.

      @@IamTaliaIsrael I grew up in the country in a southern town so my experience was a little different but I enjoyed reading about yours, lol. But yes indeed! Those were some good times with good music! Unlike today we enjoyed so much with so little. I'm not ashamed to admit that I was one of those teenagers who would hold a tape recorder up to the radio to record a song I didn't have already 😂 or listening to the quiet storm radio where people called in to dedicate songs. And I lived for Soul Train every Saturday. Simplier days and now great memories for sure!

    When you commit to somebody, you give everything-heart, mind, body and soul--to that person. Yes, there will be moments when you and your significant are going to have fallouts--that is to be expected, yet you remember that you love each other, and you remember how strong that love you have for each other. However, there is another dynamic that love has to it, and that is pain. As you hold each other in each other's arms--especially during moments of passion, you allow yourselves to feel not only each others' strengths and passion, but each others vulnerabilities. While the two of you are basking in moments of ecstasy, a slight twinge of pain creeps in because you know that there is going to come a time when you will not have each other, that the two of you are going to be together for a season--however long that is--weeks, months, years, even decades. Despite knowing that inevitable fate, you nevertheless enjoy the love you have for each other. That is what I believe is the core meaning behind--and the reason I love "Cry Together".
