Music, Tears, and the Borgias

I was watching The Borgias season finale. I felt tears welling up in my eyes. One of the scene's in the finale is so touching that you would have to be stone not to feel something. If you haven't watched it, it is a scene where someone is being buried. I don't cry at funerals, and I don't cry in movies. But this sccene made me tear up.

I think the saddest part, the part that made me feel remorse, was how the burial was depicted. The person buried is shown (metaphorically) in the way that he is viewed by the person burying him (and not how he looks in reality).

We all see everyone through a certain lens. And that lens is different for everyone. We all have a unique set of eyes that we see things through. I need to remember that.
