Tear a drop can tell a story, can create history and can even destroy an existence.

Movies depict tears with an emotional touch perhaps greater than what we can think of. While in the world of reels, glycerin is a catalyst which enables the emotions to look real, in the real world it is the relations and the situations which are the reason for tears.

A child born brings happiness, a prize won brings cheers, a praise or hard work awarded brings tears of joy, a departed soul stirs emotions which remind the relations of the bonding that was, a break up (the anchor sheet of many Indian silver screen hits at a point of time or say, family dramas) are some of the instances we come across in our life every day.

Whats so special in these tears which binds or breaks a relationship?  Why is it that we either are swept away by tears or get weak when someone sheds tears before us?
