Some people turn sad awfully young. No special reason, it seems, but they seem almost to be born that way. They bruise easier, tire faster, cry quicker, remember longer and, as I say, get sadder younger than anyone else in the world. I know, for I’m one of them.
Ray Bradbury, Dandelion Wine

[ "I fight. I resist. It doesn't even matter what I resist; there is simply something in me that tends to resist things as they are. I have been fighting since I was very small." ]
vii. Fiona Apple, Left Alone
[ "[Chorus] / How can I ask anyone to love me / When all I do is beg to be left alone?" ]

The joy you lived through might have been temporary, but so is this sadness. Perspective is everything and nothing lasts forever. That happy moment might be gone, but it doesn't mean the sadness will last forever and that no more joy will ever come your way. Pain is there to be felt so we can react to it, so please remember to sit with your feelings but not to dwell on it so much you forget to do something to relief that pain a little, to change things around. We have a tendency to get absorbed in pain and to believe that it is all we will ever feel, but it isn't. We can feel so much more, we can live through so much more, and even though it is sad that life is fleeting, it also means that this suffering won't last forever, it won't be all that you have. We all have ups and downs, please don't let the frustration of being in pain make you believe it is all you have and all you will ever feel. Keep going. You will find joy again. 🌱
