You can be interested in a time period without making light of the atrocities committed during that period. You can be fascinated by a figure without glorifying or erasing the horrible things they did. The harm is not in being interested in dark parts of history, the harm is pretending that it isn’t dark.
Joy was working so hard to keep Sadness out of the way so Riley could be happy.. But this movie clearly shows the negative effects on your psyche if you keep your sadness bottled up. Yes, Joy is a wonderful sensation and we’d love to feel it all the time.. but Sadness is also a necessity. Bottling up feelings CAN do damage.. (I would know, as I’m sure a lot of us would..)
We do deserve to be happy, but we need to experience sadness, too. It only makes the joyous occasions even brighter and more special. If you ARE sad, let it out, don’t bottle it up. Once you’re done with that.. Treat yourself to something like a cookie or donut, enjoy a hot bath, watch a funny video of kittens trying to fit into a shoe .. Or, if the sadness is too much … Talk to a (SUPPORTIVE) family member, a friend, or look into possibly seeing a therapist. There are people that love you and want to stay by your side, in joy and in sadness.
This Tumblr was supposed to be for art originally haha, but I end up being so busy that I rarely have time to do art lately. But after buying Clip Studio 3+ weeks ago I finally had the time to sit down and try it out, so here’s some art of one of my favourite things to draw: Mewtwo in a cloak.
