    Oh man I am concerned. I need to fly to Mexico City and see my dad now. He has been experiencing an overwhelming feeling to cry at random times. Ever since the day he got out he has been surrounded by family day and night. This morning he was dropped off at his studio to start arranging all his stuff. All of the sudden he just broke down crying and sobbing. He explained to me that this was the first time in 31 years that he has been alone. In prison there were always people around, inmates or guards, always a bunch of noise day and night. He finally felt solitude for the first time in 31 years and it was overwhelming, he just couldn't control his emotions.

    • he started crying during one of those interviews he did too. he has not been able to cry during his entire imprisonment. imagine 30 years of emotions balled upHijoDMaite
