About as Emo as I Get

I am not a sad person by nature. I could probably count on one hand the number of times in my life that I have felt "depressed." This week has been one of those times. It's probably a combination of a lot of things going on in my life right now. Things are changing. I have some tough decisions to make regarding my future. The earthquakes in Haiti really shook me up. And then a friend passed away unexpectedly. I know that my life is so blessed. I don't usually have much to be sad about. I am kind of taking this opportunity to have a new experience. By allowing myself to feel sad, I hope I will be able to use the memory to relate to people who are hurting. "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted."

  1. what a beautiful outlook to have on the subject of depression- "to relate to people who are hurting. "Blessed are those who mourn, for they will be comforted." I find myself depressed at times...never knew all the hard decisions that would come with growing up...but next time I will remember what you've said- in my prayers-hope tomorrow brings peace and happiness.--stephanie brown
