"Sadness does not inhere in things; it does not reach us from the world and through mere contemplation of the world. It is a product of our own thought. We create it out of whole cloth" Emile Durkheim, Suicide
Conversation
Sadness comes from losing things one loves. In the end, everything is lost. The whole of existence is tragic.
