Gratitude

I still have these days where I feel depressed and lost, sad, hopeless. And I've slowly realized that I've felt this way almost my whole life -- not every day, mind you. It comes and goes. PolackPappy told me he has the same problem. The light dims, the candle sputters. But it always comes back.

I'm glad I'm not so self-destructive anymore. I'm much, much better at moving through rather than running from things. Today I felt pretty low but instead of spending the entire day wallowing I did some cleaning, attempted some writing, went to yoga, took a bath, called a friend. Tried to put forth a little love.
