Do you experience weltschmerz?

Greetings to everyone.

Hope you are all well.

Do you have weltschmerz?

I must confess I had never heard this word before I found it on a website I was visiting.

Have you ever felt a deep sadness and frustration with the world and all the ugly things that are happening in it? You may have had weltschmerz.

What Is Weltschmerz? The Definition and Origins

Weltschmerz is a German word that literally means ‘world’ (welt) + ‘pain’ (schmerz) and defines an emotional state when someone is melancholic about all the suffering and injustice that exist in the world. We could say that it’s a deeper and more desperate version of world-weariness.

Yes, it’s a depressing world, but IMO, Matthew 6:9-10 will soon come true!

The issues raised in Genesis 3, are nearing their end.
