A Calming Murmur to My Sadness

Deeply rooted within us is the desire to be happy. Our whole being will never desire sadness or rejection. However, the fact is that everything in life exists along with its opposites. The degree of sadness may be mild or intense depending on how strongly we identify with it.

Everyone, regardless of status has in more ways than one experienced extreme sadness in her/his life. This happens even for no reason at all. It is but natural, psychiatrists would say. And yet, it could be depression, too. There are many ways to address this. Some indulge in what helps them the most like the arts, music, drama. But when one feels very sad, it really helps to talk to someone. It's as if a weight has been lifted off your chest.

Even at the peak of her career, big celebrity BC had her share of melancholy moments. One may think that it could be caused by too much stress brought about by her huge status and other personal factors. Often, BC would just stare blankly into space amidst all the noise and klieglights around.

Those episodes never left her. In fact such even escalated as she matured and had bigger responsibilities and issues to face. But each time, she had a favorite “go to” person - this happens to be a very good-looking fellow actor FA. Allegedly, everytime BC felt extreme sadness, she would long for FA to talk and unload her sentiments to, and within just minutes with him even on the phone, BS would feel a sudden high, a lift of energy that she needed at that point. Yes, FA seemed to have that healing power over her.

To this day, BC who has become more distressed and uncertain with her life and career, allegedly, it is still FA whom she seeks and talks to. Whether it is pure friendship that binds them both, no one can tell. All we know is that BC had long wanted that they do a movie together. Yet, for one reason or another – it never happened.
