i was looking around.. cruising the internet and just following links from page to page. these were all personal homepages and as i looked at the titles and phrases on each page they started to run with a theme almost. every page had words upon it that talked about how life was so bittersweet. even my own title was created because of a sadness i once felt. funny, how happiness is hardly written about, we just enjoy it. but sadness, depression, rejection, bitterness, anger.. are written down, shared in ambiguous and yet soulful words sung from a keyboard in a room that is at that moment the most lonely place on earth. is this how it is with every generation, sad words sung in poetry and music woven into a place for all the world to see.. and perhaps someone to notice and understand? i suppose misery really does love company, it's easier to share your sadness with another person.. but i think we do it, because "sadness shared is sadness halved and happiness shared is happiness doubled"..i forgot who said that.. but it does hold some truth to it. it's easier to bear a burden with others there.. and so to all my soul bearing peers out there, you're not alone, we have each other.
