Feeling Quote by pirhana4
““when you're feeling emotional, remember: there is no sad, sad comes from feeling too happy. there is no happy, happiness comes from feeling extreme sadness. when they say that you have an equal amount of suffering and joy in the world, that is a lie. your extreme suffering makes any slight thing seem amazing, and your happiness makes you suffer at any slightly worse thing.””
