Is it possible to experience being in the darkest depths of despair and the highest ecstasy of joy all at the same time? I can tell you that the answer is “Yes”. It is a very strange state to be in – like feeling utterly hopeless and wildly optimistic in the same instant.

Nothing is being denied or hidden. They just are what they are…
