How many people get upset, have a break up, feel sad and then... put on the saddest music as if you wish to indulge this feeling of pain and despair? Or you miss someome and you just listen to the music and get even more nostalgic?

I do it all the time and just realised how stupid it is! why would anyone want to indulge in such a feeling? and go down the spiral instead of climb out of it? Unless, a slight possibility here, we like pain? Subconcsiously feel some sort of pleasure from the pain we are experiencing? or maybe the word is wrong... not pleasure as such for that would be quite an oxymoron - painful pleasure indeed - but more a release of some sorts. A release of all the emotions from your inner soul and body in the form of tears. 

If that is what the body wants.. I guess let it be. But how.. funny does it sound. To release the pain by giving yourself more... the mind works in mysterious ways.
