Depression Hurts

Moving towards the office block, I sudden felt very sick and tired.

And as I worked along the corridor to the office door and realized that it was locked, the sense of depression was more.

I then walked along the corridor with heavier and slower footsteps, looking around and keeping watch of someone who had the key.

It took quite a while before a good Samaritan appeared.

Again, another depressing look.......

Yet another..... and another.........

All of a sudden, all the good feelings to work had long gone.......

*******

Feeling tired and bored is part and parcel of everyday life.

Dealing with the same matters day in and day out is no fun at all.

Some dwell on their depression and feel it even more throughout the day.

Some just get on with their life, push hard and succeed to get rid of it along the way.

*******

But then there will come a day when we are just too lazy to do anything.

Suddenly the loads at work, at home......... become very heavy and difficult.

The sense of uncertainty and anxiety is mounting high.

There are promises to keep, obligations to meet, rules to uphold, details to remember, sequences to follow, processes to monitor, races to win,........

Ouch, it hurts and sucks!

*******

And so we continue with our lives and our lifestyles........

Dragging in the mud and trying to push........

Life is hard and cruel......... and difficult.

*******

But then when we start to envision our goals.......

Wading our feet in the clear and refreshing water........

Slowly and carefully moving forward and overcoming barriers........

Then we will see the clear blue sky, its white fluffy clouds, all the green trees and the beautiful Hallelujah Mountain.......

Then as we dip our feet and wash ourselves in the fountain of Life.......

All depression is gone....

All burden is gone.......

And it doesn't matter anymore........
