survival

I just watched Grey's Anatomy latest episode and it enlightens me. The pyschiarist said to Meridith "Feeling happiness in all the horrible things that happen is not the goal.Feeling the horrible and knowing that you are not gonna die from the feelings, that's the goal."

I tried to make myself happy after the breakup. After months sometimes I feel emo. I told myself why am I so weak feeling emo? But now I understand, despite the emoness I still survive.
