I have recently found it curious how the voice is tied into the emotions, at least for me. A few years ago, when reading a section of a novel to my wife, I found it hard not to start crying at a passage I found moving enough when reading silently, but that did not nearly bring on tears. And more recently I repeatedly revised and reread a eulogy for a friend dry-eyed, then found myself struggling not to break down when I delivered it a the memorial service.
- hombre_fatal 6y agoI've often wondered if I had the strength to read a eulogy in front of a crowd. But I realize it's something that my loved ones would deserve. Kind of like deciding to hold your pet when it's euthanized even though it's emotionally easier for you if they are taken into the next room at the vet office to die alone, scared.
