I am strong, but not always

I usually have strength to give away, but not always. Tonight I am overwhelmed with sadness, remembering my Mom and my Dad, and at the same time, swamped in feeling worthless.

I should be feeling grateful for all the good that is around. But it just isn’t sitting that way tonight.

So, ignore my whining while I just share this, I have no reason to feel so sad.

Not sure you have to have a reason to feel sad. Sometimes we all do. Some sadness is normal and without it you wouldn’t recognize when you feel good. At least that is what I tend to think.

The nagging tone of depression is different and even then give yourself some grace.
