My Closely Held Sadness

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about something I didn’t have language for until recently — what I’m calling my closely held sadness.
This isn’t depression, and it isn’t a crisis. It’s a quiet, contained sadness that has lived with me for a long time — shaped by age, winter, time, love, loss of certainty, and the slow awareness that life is finite.
I’m turned 60 this December, and this season of the year has always been philosophical for me. My birthday, Christmas, New Year’s, my wedding anniversary, my wife’s birthday, and winter break all converge into a stretch of time that naturally invites reflection, reckoning, and stillness.
In this video, I try to do three things:
– describe what I mean by “closely held sadness”
– name some of the places it comes from
– reflect on what it might actually be for
This is not a video about fixing sadness or overcoming it. It’s about listening to it — and noticing how, sometimes, a soft inner brightness can rise even while the world around us remains frozen through.
If this resonates with you, you’re welcome here.
