When i read this passage, in the beginning I felt that it was too dark and lingering on the negatives too long and too much.
But as i reflected on the later parts, I began to feel that the author actually built up the drama and negativity to create "stress" and then helped us to release it through beautiful images that resonate in the hearts of the readers.
As John eloquently put it, gradually, I am returning to myself, having learned a new respect for John and the joy that dwells far within negative stress.
