Okay people I made a major writing mess with the last publication, all I did was the spell check but I did not check my writing. So I am trying it again, I never said I was a good writer, but that I enjoyed doing it.

This morning I woke up with a major cloud of sadness. I did not want to get up out of my bed and I did not want to interact with the world. Not my friends, not my granddaughter, only me. I wanted to be in this pity party and I knew if I were around my friends or talking to people about the Good News of the kingdom, I would no longer be in my pity party. Today was one of those days that I concentrated on all my failures and none of the good things that I had accomplished in life.

Writing about Tina Turner and the things she accomplished after walking out of a marriage where she was mentally and physically abused, got me jazzed not enough though.

The things that make me really feel good is having good friends and family, and talking about the Good News of the Kingdom. Even more is having a relationship with my Creator and knowing that I am loved by him, even more than I deserve.

So if you are someone who is going through a bad day, don't stay in the bed and look at the same four walls all day long, you are only destroying yourself both physically and mentally.

Be part of life and not someone just standing on the side lines cheering racers on during a marathon race. The goal of that race is to finish, not to be the one who finishes first or second.

Once again I give you DEPRESSION:

Do you have those days, when the world gets overbearing?
It feels like everything is closing in, and no one seems to be caring.

Every problem that you might have seems to be magnified.
You cannot seem to think it out nor can it be simplified.

That is when your bed becomes your best friend.
The comfort you find within your sheets your energy stays within.

No one seems to understand this hopeless feeling is real.
The world would be a better place if this space you did not fill.

"Snap out of it, " people to you reply, "Tomorrow will be a better day."
Do not they realize if you could, you would not want to feel this way?

Dealing with Depression

Being part of a marathon does not entail being the first or second, just someone who completes the race.
