Product description
Sadness is your superpower!
Loss and impermanence are inevitable and important parts of our lives. They are indispensable for love, growth or art. And yet how rarely do we recognize the values inherent in our negative emotions!
In Susan Cain's latest work, she directs us towards the bittersweet state of mind, which is also the insight that there is no light without shadow, life without death - sweet and bitter are eternal partners. The bittersweet state is a tendency toward grief and longing, the quiet power of which helps us transcend our personal and collective pain.
If you've ever wondered why you like sad music...
If a rainy day brings you comfort or inspiration...
If you are strongly influenced by music, art, nature and beauty...
...then you know me in the bittersweetness.
If we don't acknowledge our own heartache, then, according to Cain, we may end up unwittingly causing similar pain to others, becoming their abusers, oppressors, or neglectors. But if we understand that all people know loss and suffering, then we will be able to turn to each other. Using the tools of research, storytelling, and personal recollections, the author shows why we experience grief and longing, and how embracing the bittersweet leads to creativity, connection, and transcendence.
In an age of profound strife and individual anxieties, Bittersweet brings us closer to each other with poignant and unexpected means.
