One of my teachers often says, "No one can totally protect their children from getting hurt. But everyone can help their children be better prepared to heal from any hurt. That includes making space for sadness, joy, all the feels." xoxo :)

Yes, I live in a near constant state of almost sadness. And to be honest, the happiest I ever am is right after I allow myself to collapse into a pile of total sadness. Then it starts to be fun.

I’m pro-sad. I just spent 24 straight hours listening to my “sad girl playlist” which contains exactly two songs to remind me that, fuck yeah, sadness is the best bro.

My musings, inspired by your musings. Thank you for inspiring my sadness musings.
