Melancholy isn’t always a disorder that needs to be cured. It can be a species of intelligent grief which arises when we come face-to-face with the certainty that disappointment is written into the script from the start.

oh, my yes.
It’s as if Alain de Botton wrote a 2-sentence summary of your blog:) I love these words and the way both he and you beautifully articulate complex human emotions and experiences. Thank you for sharing.
I know! Wasn’t that nice of him? 🙂
Thank you. xox
