Sorrow & Joy

Songs For Humans Who Are Hurting

A playlist for days we are holding this paradox. Naming and feeling our own pain reminds of our connectedness to others, in sorrow and love.

Here’s a playlist for days we are holding this paradox. Naming and feeling my own pain reminds me of my connectedness to others, in sorrow and love.

Sorrow and joy are not oil and water,
They’re hater and lover, they inform each other.
Attract and repel make us sick make us well,
But in the end we must hold them together.

From the Indigo Girls song, “Sorrow & Joy”
