— No, thank you. I love life.
— How can you say that? You’ve been left…
— I know… And it hurts. It really does. But at the same time, I’m grateful that something exists that can make me feel this deeply. Do you understand? I feel alive. I feel human. If it hurts this much now, then it must have meant that I once felt something truly beautiful. So I have to live through the pain, just as I once lived through the joy. I suppose that’s what bittersweet sadness is… even if it sounds a little foolish.
