The Holidays
The Holidays Christmas time is a very depressing time of the year for A LOT of people, including myself. Its a time to reflect on the past year and the people we lost along the way, a time to remember our family and friends that are no longer with us. As your out and about, SMILE.......cause someone may need your smile that day. I know all about pain and depression during this time of year, I have lost quite a few people this year and none of them were old and all of them were unexpected, 3 were just<b> teenagers </font></b>with so much life in them. I am dedicating this blog to those 3 great and those had more love and concern in their hearts for strangers than any 1 adult I ever knew. So I just want to put out and say...........please do not spend the holiday alone.......if you have no where to eat and have Christmas dinner with, contact me..........i will open my door to you and make a place at the table. Its a hard enough time of the year and even harder if your alone. If you all have friends or family to spend it with........then that makes you the richest people in the world......doesn't take money to make you Rich, takes just 1 good friend. Open your heart this Christmas and smile even if it hurts. Cause that 1 smile could change a person's whole day. Remember a smile is contagious!!!! If you have no where to go...........contact me.........we will figure it out together!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE!!!!!! {=} |

You make it sound simple an easy, it isn't. Most people don't really understand depression. They understand feeling down, depression is a whole different thing.

Throwing my 2 cents in. I don't live alone, but in many ways I might as well be. As my room mate/sorta bf is mentally ill.And I'm lonely in ways I never thought possible. But it is what it is and I take each minute as it comes. But your heart is in the right place and I give you props for that. We could all take a lesson in caring and sharing and giving from you.

Nothing is ever simple. I wasn't going to give a long drawn out speech. I do know the difference between all of them. A lot of people don't even know they are in a depression until they are already there and once there takes a very long time and a struggle beyond belief to get up out of it. Some don't make it out of it!!! My point for my blog was simple..........SMILE not for yourself but for someone else..........and 2 I don't want anyone spending the holiday alone and my door is open. You took 1 word out of my blog and ended up missing the whole point and purpose of my blog. MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
