You've cried at weddings, right? At the birth of a baby? And, of course, you've probably cried at funerals, but have you ever stopped to wonder why both happy and sad events, make you so emotional? Even worse, do you often feel like you're the only one? I will impart wisdom gleaned from professional conferences, seminars, books and articles and/or I will blog my personal thoughts. Either way, I hope you check in often, so you know that your tears are never shed in a vacuum!

MEN GRIEVE DIFFERENTLY
I have often heard women say, when they and their husbands or mates are grieving, "My husband wants sex! How can he even be thinking about sex at a time like this??" Well, ladies, they really aren't thinking about "sex" as such. Guys may want more sex when grieving, because that is the only way, or. at least, the safest way, for them to feel vulnerable. This is so very important and yet, it is so misunderstood.
