I wish to be able to speak to these subject unimpeded by this emotional response (since it gets in the way and stops me dead in my tracks) and I find it most inconvenient and a little embarrassing.
I, personally, love it when people display emotions of a loving kind. It makes me connect to that person. I listen to Dr Ott's radio show a lot, and one time he started to cry on air. He was reading aloud a piece about an autistic child. I have nothing but respect for people who care enough to cry.
