Saudade
Is an emotional state of melancholic or profoundly nostalgic longing for a beloved yet absent something or someone. It derives from the Latin word for solitude. It is often associated with a repressed understanding that one might never encounter the object of longing ever again. It lends itself to how we deal with grief. Some need more time to process. Others try to run away from it. But somehow, the process of grieving is shared with others, whether we choose it or not.
