Sad 1/13
To be sad is an emotion contrary to joy and happiness. It can be experienced under normal conditions, during everyday life, or because of a particularly dramatic event, such as a loss, bereavement or disappearance.
It is one of the "six fundamental emotions" described by P. Ekman, along with happiness, anger, surprise, fear and disgust.
The moment of sadness represents the encounter between desire and its own limits. It is not the outside that somehow delimits desire, but these limits are constitutive of desire itself. Accepting one's own limitation helps in some way to overcome sadness.
This feeling is especially felt by artists, who continually try to overcome themselves. Many painters, poets, musicians have produced their best works in moments of great sadness and melancholy.
Sadness is a physiological feeling if it is limited to limited occasions. If this situation persists for long periods of time, we speak of depression.
Sadness is not directly related to depression, it can be understood as the beginning of a physical and mental evil such as depression, so it should not be underestimated. Sadness can also be brought about by dissatisfaction or by not having made or carried out significant choices and decisions in one's life.
