Once we stare into the void, it too stares into us. This gaze into darkness allows us to better identify the radiance of the heavens and put life into greater perspective. Peering through the lens of depressive realism, "A Spoonful of Sadness" is the exhalation of my darker moments and is something that should be shared so that we may all better appreciate the light still within us. I wrote this book for me, but have come to know that it is for us; I believe this book is for you. Come: sit, eat, and enjoy "A Spoonful of Sadness" with me.
