Happinness = Sorrows

"Your joy is your sorrow unmasked. The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain. When you are joyous, look deep into your heart and you shall find it is only that which has given you sorrow that is giving you joy. When you are sorrowful, look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight. Some say joy is greater than sorrow, while others say sorrow is greater. But they are inseparable. Together they come, and when one sits alone with you at the board, the other is asleep in your bed." --- Khalil Gibran

Everytime I am sad, I remember these lines from the book I once read.... and then I realized that I should not be sad at all... because what I was sad about had once brought happinness to me...and maybe, I should be thankful that somehow, at some point in my life, that happiness was present...even if its in the past... and all that's left for the present is sorrow.
