I almost cried today for the first time

#1 Postby WidreMann » Wed Jun 04, 2003 5:53 pm

...cutting onions. This has never happened before, but I was cutting a particularly green onion and my eyes became very irritated. I've always prided myself in being able to cut onions with pleasure and ease, and for people who can't (such as my sister). But now, I may be in the same boat as those people. And onions may begin to go uncut.

WM, if you ever feel the Holy Spirit come upon you the way that I did when God called me, you will not only cry, but you will be bawling your eyes out and have the deepest mourn ever known to you before! :D :)

I have contacts and I've noticed that when I have them in I don't tear up at all. It's like the contacts protect my eyes, just thought yall would like to know that :lol:

Can't believe we're talking about onions here....LOL!!! Thought it was going to be something spiritual. Isn't there some simple technique? Running them under water? I dunno, I just chop them up quick and move on to the next item that needs to be chopped. You gotta be fast!
