What stirs you?

Men aren’t supposed to express emotion …
But I do like Tim McGraw’s “When the Stars Go Blue”
Or Anita Baker’s “No One in the World”
What Stirs You?

Pussy
I hold it true, whate'er befall;
I feel it, when I sorrow most;
'Tis better to have loved and lost
Than never to have loved at all.

Why do you think men shouldn't express emotion? Are you being serious or sarcastic?

The other day I saw a sunrise over the lake. Between the air's refraction and the water's reflection, the sun appeared as a brilliant golden column of flame. That stirred me.

I cry when Optimus Prime dies in the Transformers movie.



Reaction from that is why Duke wasn't killed in the G.I. Joe movie. :|

Clicky
Stupidity if left untreated is self-correcting
If ya can't be good, look good, if that fails, make 'em laugh.

To those closest to you, yes, to strangers, keep 'em guessing (as long as it's not negative.)



I suck very badly at ever attempting to conceal emotions. I just can't do it; I don't know how.:P

Probably one of the reasons why I can't be one of the "cool kids.":D

I don't know if it qualifies as "Stiring me" but I have this live version of James Taylor singing the song "Something in the Way she Moves" I guess he wrote it for a girlfriend of his in 1965... I kind of like the version... :)
Theres something in the way she moves,
Or looks my way, or calls my name,
That seems to leave this troubled world behind.
If Im feeling down and blue,
Or troubled by some foolish game,
She always seems to make me change my mind.

Chorus:
n(and) I feel fine anytime shes around me now,
Shes around me now
Almost all the time.
n(and) if Im well you can tell that shes been with me now,
n(and) shes been with me now
Quite a long, long time
And I feel fine.___________

Every now and then the things I lean on lose their meaning,
And I find myself careening
Into places where I should not let me go.
-- she has the power to go where no one else can find me,
Yes, and to silently remind me
Of the happiness and good times that I know, you know.
Well I said I just got to know that:

It isnt what shes got to say
Or how she thinks or where shes been.
To me, the words are nice, the way they sound.
I like to hear them best that way -
It doesnt much matter what they mean,
Weh (when/well? ) she says them mostly just to calm me down.

Chorus:
n(and) I feel fine anytime shes around me now,
A-shes around me now
Almost all the time.
If Im well you can tell that shes been with me now,
And shes been with me now
Quite a long,
Long
Time -
Yes, and I feel fine.___________


I thought it was appropiate here... :D:D

This song does a pretty good job too... stiring me that is...

Angel by Sarah McLachlan...

Spend all your time waiting
For that second chance
For a break that would make it okay
There’s always one reason
To feel not good enough
And it’s hard at the end of the day
I need some distraction
Oh beautiful release
Memory seeps from my veins
Let me be empty
And weightless and maybe
I’ll find some peace tonight

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there

So tired of the straight line
And everywhere you turn
There’s vultures and thieves at your back
And the storm keeps on twisting
You keep on building the lie
That you make up for all that you lack
It don’t make no difference
Escaping one last time
It’s easier to believe in this sweet madness oh
This glorious sadness that brings me to my knees

In the arms of an angel
Fly away from here
From this dark cold hotel room
And the endlessness that you fear
You are pulled from the wreckage
Of your silent reverie
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort there
You’re in the arms of the angel
May you find some comfort here

eagles
rainbows
moonlight on water
key lime pie
fireflys
long hair in the wind
solving a puzzle
loud engines
sad endings
heroism
dark eyes
old airplanes

When she's a little bit sad, and you think of something to say, and she likes it so much that a pure, unrestrained girly smile lights up and she giggles.

really good spaghetti
soft landings
sunshine between clouds
learning a new trick
wolves
salmon, grilled, with a little bit of lemon
sad music
beauty

Sad-happy movies (Second Hand Lions and maybe even cried a little during Wicked)
Emotion filled songs (I still get goose bumps when I listen to and think about the Star Spangled Banner)
Having to say the words "Time of Death:"

I try hard to be stoic and strong... but easily get goose bumps and maybe loose a tear or two. Although I can act the part of a good poker player.. I don't think that I could play with friends that knew me well.

I dunno if I'll find the peace tonight...meds aren't working and I just can't quiet my head. Lots of shouting going on in there...lots of things not o.k. in there...just not gonna find the peace tonight.

I want to find the arms of my angel, and let them take me far away from here....

Ciels-

Can't remember ever crying for a movie. I can never get to that point knowing it's just acting caught on cellulose. No matter how poignant or emotional, it's still make believe.

I am moved by real events like the kind you get from family and good friends. Scripted stuff doesn't touch me deeply at all.

Everything in this world. The sadness of things happening at this moment .... the sunset ..... sunrise ..... a beautiful water fall .... LOVE .... and so on and so on.

I watched "What Dreams May Come" this weekend....

Why can Love be so completely wonderful and yet so painful? [:/]

It woulld be kinda worthless if it wasn't;):)
You are not now, nor will you ever be, good enough to not die in this sport (Sparky)

But.... Love that intense is also that completely devastating when one is left alone. Thus why she had to give up everything when he died.....

Some people refrain from beating a dead horse. Personally, I find a myriad of entertainment value when beating it until it becomes a horse-smoothie.
