I like living. I have sometimes been wildly, despairingly, acutely miserable, racked with sorrow, but through it all I still know quite certainly that just to be alive is a grand thing.

Our reading
An editorial interpretation.
The speaker acknowledges periods of intense misery while maintaining a firm appreciation of being alive. Suffering and gratitude remain present together in this account. Its resilience comes from allowing sorrow its full weight without letting that sorrow determine the entire value of existence.
