The Beauty Of Sadness

I once read somewhere that ‘sadness is beautiful’. I used to wonder then that how could it be….
And then the answer came to me….
When a person is sad, he feels so many emotions all at once, its difficult to decide which emotion to let surface first. There is pain, loneliness, depression, hurt, anger, frustration, helplessness, hate, possessiveness, anxiety, fear, reminiscence, melancholy, love, lust, passion…….you name it! These emotions become your constant companions. You are so drenched in self pity that you start smiling at yourself.
This is the beauty of sadness- it is so overwhelming that it makes you smile. It makes you feel so powerless; you end up mocking your own self.
You feel trapped in some sort of icy black darkness. Feelings of doom creep over you slow and steady and squeeze every positive emotion out of you and engulf you in deathly coldness. Its as if you are falling in a bottomless abyss. Life starts to seem pointless, aimless, dreary and bleak.
This is the beauty of sadness- it is so powerful, it takes over you whole life. It negates every thought in your mind, every feeling in your heart, every element of your soul. It takes away the very desire to live.
This is the beauty of sadness……
