Accept your Sadness: She Will Grant Your Wishes

She is a great ally, a precious guide able to bring you back on your path

We all think that sadness comes for an external reason: a quarrel, a love that does not work, stress at work and so on. We identify a cause and commit ourselves to eliminate it, thus thinking to drive away even sadness. But in vain, because sadness returns.

No one thinks instead that this melancholy is an ally that comes from within, a precious resource that faces the soul when it is thirsty for novelty because everything that we live seems old and dead. External facts are only switches, but what they light up is within us. When we force the ocean of our life into a narrow puddle made of roles, beliefs, duties, when happiness is a distant memory, the soul sends the sadness to rebalance, to make us again perceive what we are losing, what we are renouncing: to our uniqueness! Do not fight it, do not try to drive it away right away, try to welcome it as a precious guest, let it sit inside you: it will be her to show you the way to give color and passion to your days!
