On Feelings of Sadness

Sadness comes in to our lives in many different ways.

As the counterpoint to happiness, we often don't like sadness, but it's an integral part of who we are.

Without sadness to help us reflect and learn, we wouldn't appreciate the good times we have with self and others.

Remembering this is important, because when sadness does come it can often be overwhelming and blind us to the reality of our situation, which is usually only temporary.

Our feelings are real, but they aren't facts.
