I think it means you decide how you want to live your life and the world will honor your wish. If you want to be a victim you will be a victim. If you want to live victorious then you will live the victory.
It means no one is ready to share your burden,they let you suffer alone.
Personally I think it means, that when you laugh when your happy it's infectious and everyone wants to immitate as it's a positive action, but when crying it's a negative emotion that seems isolating and others try to avoid hence leaving you alone.
Hope this helps. Visit my Hubpage if you would like to see my selection of Hubs and soon my new Psycology page :).
Or, you could cry, and the world laughs AT you.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
