Sadness

It's a feeling when we are at loss, or experience unhappy events. It's the emotional pain that most of us don't want to experience such feeling. Sadness is even more deeper when a closer relationship has ended, somehow.

We may also experience sadness when we feel the pain of another person that we care or love. Instinctively, we would want to take away that pain from him/her.

Can we take away the pain from our loved one? I don't think so. But if we can take it away, we may also deprived him or her the opportunity to grow.

To help others deal with sadness is to be compassionate, able to share another person's suffering and pain, knowing and understanding what the pain feels like.

Sadness also helps us appreciate happiness.

It's pretty hard to tell what does bring happiness. Poverty and wealth have both failed.
