what is your favorite nuance of sorrow(either in your own experiences or something that you want to express in your works)?
no particular reasons tho, i'm just curious...

in personal experience, the way i firmly believe sorrow is a very human emotion and the way it can have different faces when its expressed. i see sorrow as something that can come from one event to something that compounds over time. in writing i think i want to express how sorrow lingers and comes out in different ways. i see sorrow as an emotion/experience that is most often indirectly expressed. it can either rush out in bursts or trickle out. the counselor in me thinks that sorrow is a difficult emotion to work with, similar to grief, in the sense that it takes a different form for each person and can change forms/mutate over time

on a writing note i'd want to express the difference in sorrow person to person and the ways it can morph depending on how that character expreiences the world
