“And when the sadness knocks on your door, you welcome it this time. It forgives you for yelling, for throwing things at it, it forgets the curses you screamed the night it visited you last week. When the sadness comes back, as an old friend, as the death of your lover, you open your door. You let it in your house. You two do not speak. You just sit together.”
— Growing Up is Welcoming the Sadness Sometimes
