Summary
Sometimes the mere thought can set off the feeling. Sadness…..something lost or maybe not attained. Sadness can bring loneliness, a need to be with others. It can be difficult to explain, it takes time to navigate through. It may leave us or it may deepen into something darker, more tenacious.
Sadness can be about so many things from places to people, from thoughts to actions.
Our classic authors including Arnold Bennett, James Joyce, Willa Cather, Joseph Conrad, Ivan Turgenev and many others use their pens and stories to demonstrate the many ways this feeling can take a hold of lives and its consequences.
