Feeling Grief

I think I watch really sad television/plays so I remind myself that I can feel.

Its not that I can't feel, but I strive for balance, and in some ways I strive for not overreacting on individual situations.

I'm a lazy student of Buddhism, and to a greater extent Stoicism. Life happens. It just is.

The guttural cries of emotional pain.

Remind me of the necessity, rarity of life.

That it is limited, finite.
