RESCUE ME BEFORE I FALL INTO DESPAIR.

you know what they say about sadness? that one couldn't fully experience happiness if she hasn't experienced pain or suffering or loneliness? that one moment of extreme happiness is enough nullify a lifetime of emptiness and despair?

well, I think that's total bull-.

experiencing happiness is traumatizing -- especially once you've gotten used to that high "on-top-of-the-world" feeling. scratch that. the experience of happiness isn't the one that's traumatizing.

what's traumatizing is the moment wherein everything you've worked hard for and all the things you've sacrificed suddenly crumble to dust; when that little spark of hope gets trampled and you're left lost in the dark.
