Yawning.

They say that even talking or reading about yawning can make you yawn. Tell me if that's true (hint: use the comment option below). The other day I was on the tube, returning after another tiring accomodation-hunting trip in and around central london, when I caught a glimpse of a man in the carriage behind mine enjoying a good yawn. The reaction in me was immediate. A second later I was yawning myself. There still seem to be very less explanation of why exactly we yawn, though there are quite some theories. For more see: http://science.howstuffworks.com/question572.htm

Another strange facial action is crying. How suddenly tears start dropping from the eyes. I couldn't stop crying the other day (and again just a while ago). I still am not able to find the exact cause though I know the images that trigger the action. What I am not sure is if what feeling of those images make the tears flow. Is it the feeling of being unable to give as much love to the "objects" in these images as they deserve? Or is it the fact that being suddenly displaced from being in a very lovable setting myself, I am suddenly placed again in another similar setting? If it were the first, the action is mainly emotional and voluntary. If the latter it is more of an involuntary reaction relatively.

In any case, the moral seems to be that once one finds out people who need his/her love, he/she should try to give as much of it to the them as possible.

(PS: And I thought being unattached would ensure no emotional breakdowns).

oh certainly. I certainly did start yawning.

Being unattached only buries the emotion, which comes alive at the sight of emotions around. The heart yearns for it, hence breaking ties from it is really the last strategy we need.

Welcome aboard the blogging world. it does feel great :)
