1. Certain songs

2. During the wrong 4 days of the month, literally anything. The wrong advertisement is more than enough

3. Emotions.

4. A lot of different kinds of experiences elicit emotion. You’re emotional when you’re happy, emotional when you’re angry, emotional when you’re relaxed, emotional when you’re feeling supported, emotional when you’re exhausted, emotional when you’re bored. It’s just different kinds of emotion.

   Everyone feels emotions pretty much all the time, and that includes all men. I believe that you are much more likely to harm yourself or others if you deny the fact that you experience emotions or are unable to keep up with your emotional state.

5. Sometimes I’ll randomly think about my dad who passed in 2018 and get a little emotional. Certain songs.

6. After death, the nothingness of it. My family won’t be there ,no one will be,I won’t be, its just nothing.

26. The part in Final Fantasy 7 where Red XIII finds the petrified remains of his father who died defending the village’s flank. He realizes that his father was not the fleeing coward he was ashamed of his whole life and becomes proud to be his son. Make me tear up not just when I see it…. But every time I even describe it.
