Meanings of elements

DEEP FEELING, UNFORGETTABLE with FULL CYCLE, ALL THE WAY AROUND

Deep and sad feeling of being stretched to the absolute limit of full girth, perhaps during childbirth…post-partum depression. Becoming depressed due to jealousy. Becoming disappointed after trying all readily available options. Perhaps refers to DEPRESSION associated with post-coital tristesse (PCT). Glyph likely represents the perspective of a service provider (「young and small」left element) and not that of the client (倜).
Or, no matter what happens or no matter what we humans do or not do in life, the「deep feeling with the full cycle of events」is that we return to the starting point, and that, is DISAPPOINTING: nothing really matters, nothing really changes, a 'life sucks and then you die' mentality. It should be no surprise to anyone that life is full of a DISTRESSFUL REGRETFUL SAD FORLORN VEXING series of DISAPPOINTMENTS.
「I the Preacher was king over Israel in Jerusalem. And I gave my heart to seek and search out by wisdom concerning all things that are done under heaven: this sore travail hath God given to the sons of man to be exercised therewith. I have seen all the works that are done under the sun. And, behold, all is vanity and vexation of spirit. That which is crooked cannot be made straight: and that which is wanting cannot be numbered. I communed with mine own heart, saying, Lo, I am come to great estate, and have gotten more wisdom than all they that have been before me in Jerusalem: yea, my heart had great experience of wisdom and knowledge. And I gave my heart to know wisdom, and to know madness and folly: I perceived that this also is vexation of spirit. For in much wisdom is much grief: and he that increaseth knowledge increaseth sorrow.」

Always keep in mind that these glyphs most likely were originally designed by groups of clever old men as vulgar riddles for their own entertainment (see 籒 for that), representing Chinese society many thousands of years ago, but intended NOT as a written or spoken language when created. If these glyphs had been intended for language use, the sages could not have possibly designed a worse system! Is it truly possible that all these glyphs started out as off-color jokes and puzzles? Yes! It is, and often with multiple correct answers to each riddle, the same as is true today. Sex had no shame in ancient China. Why would it? But, have there been necessary rewrites and altered explanations of the original elemental meanings over the centuries?

No one is suggesting these glyphs depict contemporary life in China, Japan, or anywhere else. This site describes glyph meanings, not people. These glyphs however, describe many and various things, including people, long before there were any notions of becoming politically incorrect. The question to be answered is, should these glyphs continue being used, by anyone, anywhere, for expressing language? (More...) Despite how seemingly bad our human existence is today, do you actually believe that the so-called good old days were any better? Or could they have been worse?

By the way, with a limited number of the same elements used by the sages again and again to form these glyphs, you should expect to find the same explanations again and again, as tedious as that may become, and as an inherent trait of any lexicon. This site explains multiple meanings of glyphs ignored or censored by other sources, generally as being too embarrassing to admit today.
