Thankies y'all!

Laughing and crying, you know it's the same release.

- Joni Mitchell

Interestingly, the only time I can recall I have ever cried over something positive, other than mere tear shedding from laughing so hard, was when I was listening to a Joni Mitchell song while driving in the car. I was really, really high. (not that I should have been)

Well crying, in a sense, is a uplifting emotion. At least, it helps you express and release your sadness and because of that, it feels good. SO there are not a great deal of differences.

I've cried in wonder and astonishment before, too.

Laughter is the "reset" button on human beings. It happens when something that doesn't make sense to a human happens. Therefore we deny it and pass if off with as a joke. To tell the truth, it makes us look stupid. I'll go more in depth if you anyone wants me to.
