Struck a chord. Yeah, it can be a daunting concept to wrap your head around sometimes.
Or as Judee used to sing:
It seems like everyone's so afraid of emotion
'Cause they can't bear the pain
But the deeper sorrow carves in the heart of your being
The more joy you can contain
Esoteric themes and death references notwithstanding, it's a great line that can be read in many different ways (and a great song at that).
