Sadness gives depth,

Happiness gives height,

Sadness gives roots.

Happiness gives branches.

Happiness is like a tree going into the sky,

and sadness is like the roots going down into the womb of the earth.

Both are needed, and the higher a tree goes, the deeper it goes, simultaneously.

The bigger the tree, the bigger will be its root.

In fact it is always in proportion.

That’s its balance. -Osho
