14 September 2022: Went to a friend's mom's visitation this evening after a long day at work. I've been thinking about how sweetness and sadness go together and fuel each other sometimes--at least to people witnessing love and loss from the outside. I am too mentally tired to say too much about this, but I said as much to my friend this evening. I never met her mom, but I knew enough about their relationship to know that they loved each other very much and had gotten through a lot of challenges, which made that love and their relationship much sweeter (looking in). And then, again, witnessing it, that sweetness amplifies the sadness. I don't know...just on my mind.
