Hidden Emotions
This month's article is a lengthy one, so grab yourself a cup of coffee or tea and sit back and ponder the hidden emotions that pop into our lives from time to time.

We can go for months, even years, in emotional harmony and then, WHAM! We are flooded with our red-faced, high-blood-pressure-fits of stupidity and immature behavior.

Today's Gentle Reminder
==========================================================

Learning to laugh at the silly things we do can make life so much easier, that it makes me wonder why we spend so much time being so dramatic about the little things that nag us each day. Why do we flip out in traffic or smash our heads against a wall because the washer won't work.

Worse yet why do we insist on taking depression so seriously? Yes, depression can have serious consequences but rarely does it have the strength to cause those serious effects when we can laugh at ourselves for thinking those stupid negative thoughts. Depression doesn't like to hang around when it is being laughed at. The monster seems to lose it's power when we see ourselves as simply rebuilding after doing too much, yet often I observe snarls of distain from faces on people that would want me to worship the darkness, and are angry at my laughter, as if it were sacrilege for me to laugh in the face of depression.

Let's learn to lighten up on depression! I am not saying that depression is not painful I know it is...but I am asking..must we worship and hold dearly to the thing? Must we give it more respect than it deserves?

"When we are motivated by goals that have deep meaning, by dreams that need completion, by pure love that needs expressing, then we truly live life."
