State Of Mind

Image result for depression  I don't know about you, but I have been depressed. Thinking on it, I equate it to how I would feel if my parents were squabbling, or I lost my best friend. Further thought leads me to this:

It is my country who is my best friend whom I am on the 'outs' with.  I have watched more news in the past year and a half then I have in my whole lifetime. All I see is how the country is divided on how it is being run. It feels like there is a cloud over my head all day long. I'm sorry if I am yammering on, but I think it is affecting all of us to a certain degree. Even my readers outside of the USA might be affected. After all, we are a world community and the behaviour of one country can affect other countries.
  In contrast, it is nice, though sad, that we can celebrate the lives well lived that have passed on. Most recently, John McCain and Aretha Franklin. It is definitely a nice change on the media to be hearing about them instead of the political turmoil that dominates the news.

  Though I offer no solution, don't you think it is therapeutic to talk about it? I know I feel better after venting. I do hear that spending time in sunshine is helpful, just remember the sun block!

Concern should drive us into action and not into a depression. No man is free who cannot control himself.   Pythagoras
