It's not just an Irish thing. My husband's family is more a British line (but from way back) and they are this way, too. I used to think it was a bad thing that I was emotional. (I cried at the beginning of Finding Nemo) Eventually, I told everyone they can just deal with it. I can't snuff out a good part of me just to be less emotional.
” (I cried at the beginning of Finding Nemo)”
Well it WAS very sad!
They had just found the perfect anenome to live in!
hundreds of little ones on the way.
