sadness

as I lay in bed, depressed, and hear my little granddaughter downstairs singing away, with little cares in the world, I wonder what happened to me. Where did that happiness go? How did life get so complicated, so troubled. Will I ever sing again?

About an hour ago I was feeling anxious and overwhelmed by the amount of negativity and nonsense propaganda I see... and angry about there being problems I am unable to change. I am fortunate enough to have someone to vent to, it helped... now I'll focus on something nicer. I think it's important for us to take time to get away from the things that get us down and try to focus on the nicer things in our life- even when it means going through the motions, because going through the motions might just lead to genuinely enjoying something.

Very true. I love your advice to "see through the eyes of a child"! It can make you laugh again, guaranteed.
