Why am I always sad inside? The more I try to be happy, the sadder I get inside. I shouldn't be sad, I have the love of my life which is a wonderful thing. I still often fall into sadness, and I am not sure why. Is it possibly I struggle to find happiness because I have no control over my life. Forcibly I lost my son, forcibly I have to rotate around my daughter, who never wants to leave my side. Forcibly I watch the slow decline of my body and mind. Forcibly I ellipse around those I care about. I am not going to give up, but it weighs on me.
