Sadness seems to be around us these days. Terrible, deep, pure and vicious. It devours us and takes us deep into the abyss with it. No matter how hard we try to cling to anything, to find hold, it just keeps on ripping and ripping further down. But as anything in life, it's also a part of something. Happiness couldn't exist without sadness, just as there is no life without death or a sunny day without a stormy one. Knowing that the world won't end because of it is the real point.

I guess sadness and hope often do go hand in hand in a way which is sometimes hard to understand. I like your picture. That floor looks rather stable, I hope it remains so!
