I got to thinking about this concept of sadness.
IMO - it's completely a learned emotion. Doesn't invalidate the emotion cuz lawd knows we have all had a down day, week, month, year etc.
Think about a baby. They smile or cry...cry not because they are sad, but because of physical discomfort. Hungry - cry, poop making their bottom itch - cry, ear ache - cry. Cry cry cry. Never are they just sad and frown. But on the flip side babies smile.
Smiling, or a feeling of contentment must be as natural as the need to eat. It's not contrived or derived.
Does that make any sense to anybody?
