"Good vibes only!" "Think Positive thoughts!" "Don't worry be happy!" We live in a society that serves us these platitudes and, at times, it can feel like you're seen as a failure or an annoyance when you express feelings of sadness, anger or fear. Like you're toxic or you're creating your own shitty situation, just because your thoughts aren't positive enough. But the thing is, some things in life are hard or sad or scary. And you can't make that go away simply by thinking positive thoughts, nor should you want to! Every emotion has a purpose, it signals something. Sadness can indicate the loss of something or someone who matters deeply to you, a truly significant emotion to feel. Of course it’s not always going to be pleasant to feel the sadness of loss, but it's a perfectly normal and human reaction indicating that you CARE and LOVE. And that’s a pretty heartwarming thing, is it not?An original mixed media painting, 60 x 80 cm, acrylic paint, spray paint, oil pastels, pencil.
