In Buddhism the first noble truth is the truth of suffering. I was so impressed with that. Dunno if this has any influence on their culture. Our equivalent might be the difference between right and wrong. Anyway Buddhists encourage you to treat your emotions as a mother might care for her child. Lots of attention to feelings and not much action on them. You know those Tibetan paintings, with all the skulls and severed heads? Anyway here we can and do talk about all that stuff which is why we're all here I guess. But the popular culture's a joke
