That´s why i get almost angry when people say Be happy! That is not possible if you are human to command someone into a certain state of mind by an imperative.. So many feelings inside us not all are positive ones. And as you say ito admitting the sadness is good step forward. ...

I appreciate the life because of its opposites. I can spend time with the mourning for only in that way I know to safeguard the joy when it knocks on my door

Thank you, I think those are wise words. Healing.

I just wonder about "constructive outlet" and becoming friends with sadness. Is there a difference? And how?

Erika wonders..

Yeah I believe we have to become friend with the sadness, since we will all meet it, some day, and it`s easier if you see this guest as someone that belongs to your acquaintance than something that indicate that something is wrong with you. This guest make you appreciate the joy when it enter after the sadness has left... So it has its function too *smile*.

That is also a way to look upon it.....Sadness and love has much in common .
So sadness is born out of love...??? Yeah...That make sense to me *smile*

yes Ru' makes perfect sence..I understood & agree almost exactly..our stories/experiences also help us to understand others & ourselves..but being caught up in the story or experience..reliving to feed sadness & fear is most destructive,being able to talk about sadness,our stories in my opinion helps us to release it..feel what we need to & let it go..is what I've been doing for years. I also know sharing our stories helps others to not feel alone and to be ok with being sad when we feel sad..
warm wishes and much love to you and your family Ru'
. hugs xx
