Thank you so much. That’s a little spot of sunshine right there. :)

Hope you find yours, too, even without looking for them.

I don’t think it’s necessarily boring to be happy, or that it’s a bad thing to be happy. I don’t understand why that idea ever even existed. I like being happy so much more than I like being sad. I think, perhaps, the idea of sadness is just more attractive since it seems to be closer to a lot of other emotions and feelings. I like it when things are expressive, as well. I think there’s just more, like I said, complexities to sadness, which is why it does seem more attractive.

Anyway, YES. Balance. And also, I miss you, too.

Have you tried higher ISOs? :)

That said, I still wish you find your spot of sunshine for when the beautiful sadness gets too much.

I love your blog. Please keep going :)

I decided I’m just going to accept it, wait for it to pass. As long as I’m not doing anything stupid because of it then I think I’m doing ok.

Idk maybe I gave up too soon. I hope you find your answers :)

but i understand the value of fighting against those inclinations also because happiness – although it is a often regarded as a positive emotion – dulls the edges of life. too much of it takes away reality and breeds naivete. besides, happiness is such an uncomplicated emotion and too much of it makes a person boring.

i guess, similarly, the goal is to find a precarious balance between extremes.

anyway. miss you already!!
