APAD: Laugh and the world laughs with you; weep and you weep

alone.

Meaning:

Look happy as people are attracted to happiness but repelled by misery.

 

Background:

 

This expression was coined by American poet Ella Wheeler Wilcox (1850-1919) in

her poem "Solitude" (1883):

 

    Laugh, and the world laughs with you;

    Weep, and you weep alone.

    For the sad old earth must borrow it's mirth,

    But has trouble enough of its own.

    Sing, and the hills will answer;

    Sigh, it is lost on the air.

    The echoes bound to a joyful sound,

    But shrink from voicing care.

    

    Rejoice, and men will seek you;

    Grieve, and they turn and go.

    They want full measure of all your pleasure,

    But they do not need your woe.

    Be glad, and your friends are many;

    Be sad, and you lose them all.

    There are none to decline your nectared wine,

    But alone you must drink life's gall.

    

    Feast, and your halls are crowded;

    Fast, and the world goes by.

    Succeed and give, and it helps you live,

    But no man can help you die.

    There is room in the halls of pleasure

    For a long and lordly train,

    But one by one we must all file on

    Through the narrow aisles of pain.

楼上两位是好男儿有泪不轻弹呀。佩服一下!不过这样岂不是少了一个疏解压力的办法?:)

 

在下还挺喜欢哭鼻子的。

有压力,哭一哭。

不高兴,哭一哭。

哭完,心情就会平和很多,有益于健康。

当然,肯定都是私下哭。公开场合,尤其职场,还是要挺住!

有泪不轻弹 is tied to male survival need. Nothing to be proud of.

理解。不容易。对于我来说,只有解决了心情,才能解决事情。

大哭一场,就是一个自我恢复的过程。哭完了,该干嘛干嘛。
