Sadness. Ultimately sadness can turn into depression, and can lead to physical illness. We are all aware of the science of the mind/body interaction. Our immune system is clearly impaired by chronic sadness and depression. We owe it to our bodies, as well as our minds and souls, to move through our sadness towards healing.
We need not hide from sadness if we understand that it is offering us opportunities to grow on a deeply emotional and spiritual level.
