Often people think depression is always sad and rarely beautiful. I think depression can be a beautiful thing when it’s not destroying yourself for the sake of art. Being depressed shows the raw emotions of whatever you’ve been through. Depression tells us your sister passed away three years ago and you’re still grieving. Depression shows us that your husband left you for someone younger and you’re still not over it. Depression tells us that you lost your child at 2 weeks and still can’t look at children without sorrow in your heart. Depression shows us the sadness that is beautiful but people aren’t willing to show. To me, depression is that one piece of art that everyone says is too sad to be displayed, but it’s secretly their favorite piece of art in the exhibit.
