sad songs in the midst of happiness

S: Do you think someone that has been sad for so long can bear happiness?

A: Why do you say that? Can you not bear happiness?

S: Perhaps. But who can? If you asked anyone in this world, do you think that they would say that they are happy?

A: You are happy. You have someone. You are not alone any more. You have so many good, close friends. How can you be unhappy now?

S: Can you forget the past so easily and all the ones you have lost?

A: Death is natural and to be expected.

S: But it is not just the question of the dead. It is the ones that I have been forced to take out of my life. When they were my life. The family that I could have had…

A: Don’t let them become ghosts that haunt you. That family did not happen. It is not real. Don’t mourn the unreal.

S: So we listen to sad songs in the midst of happiness. Songs of betrayal and the death of love. Sad songs in the midst of happiness.
