“Sadness gives depth. Happiness gives height. Sadness gives roots. Happiness gives branches. Happiness is like a tree going into the sky, and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth. Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously. The bigger the tree, the bigger will be the roots. In fact, it is always in proportion. That’s its balance.”

I am not quite sold on this, I feel people can grow strong roots even without sadness, I dont ever want to be sad, I think sadness will kill me. I have seen many great people who haven’t really faced tragedy.
