The nickname I chose, Saudade, is the hardest word to translate. See, I'm writing from Rio (Brazil). It's a one-word equivalent to what (or who) we MISS. Like, MISSING. I feel as pathetic as you do, for the very same reasons - there is not one concret reason for me to feel like that. I'm not missing any body parts, know what I mean? I'm missing LIFE. So, we're pathetic out of guilt of feeling sad and lonely and trapped in depression in spite of farmaceuticals, maybe? It's selfish, I'm actually trying to help myself out of a black hole by trying to connect to yours. So this is for you and I: we are NOT pathetic. We live in the strangest world of war and hate and money being more important than feelings. Maybe you HAVE FEELINGS and in this materialistic reality, some might say that you feel too much.
But, hey, it's Saturday night and I'm a pretty girl completely lonely and alone trying to soothe a stranger's problem... Is that pathetic or what?
Wow! So pathetic that I'm laughing at myself, now! Maybe you could do the same?
Peace
