Ode to a Crying Writer

I cried while writing a scene. I cried pretty hard. I cried because I could relate to my character's heartache. Then I cried while writing a different scene, all within the same hour. I cried for things I have, and don't have, and wish I had. I cried for mistakes made in the past and for mistakes I hope not to make in the future. I cried, felt the tears, and reveled amid intense emotion. I cried while writing scenes, and hope that since I cried, someone else (my reader) will cry. If THEY cry, then I have succeeded!

Do you ever cry when reading a romance or fiction novel?
Do you ever cry while watching a movie?
Do you judge a book or movie to be good if it makes you cry or tugs at emotions?
