Yes I'm trying to figure out why I am feeling so sad about this video. Sometimes I get obsessed over things, and it's disorienting.

Right now I am feeling ok. I watched a Buddhist video about accepting impermanence as a path to happiness and that has calmed me down significantly.

Weird thing is that I wasn't even that close to my cat, it was just a cat that was part of my routine and I enjoyed spending some time on the couch with her, and I enjoyed spoiling her a bit.

I think it's basically about loneliness, and dealing with overwhelming emotions when I'm so isolated and without purpose in my life.
