Life...

Life sometimes can be a real struggle...for everyone. We just do the best we can, with God's help. We pick our self up when we fall. We keep going in the darkness, having faith that the light will come quickly. We smile when we feel like crying. We reach out for others when we don't feel like it. We never, never ever give up because we know we can make it !!!

Your friend is struggling

How do you/can you help a friend who is struggling with depression so badly that they shut you out (and maybe others, too)?

You want to help and maybe have tried things, but this time it doesn’t seem to help your friend. You worry and pray for your friend, and keep trying to provide that magic pill that might make the difference. You miss your friend and want them back.

Struggle

What is it that causes some of our days to be happy and easy, and then some of our days to be sad and difficult? It’s almost as if we are very fickle in this regard. It would be nice to be happy and have life fairly easy all the time, but then maybe we would not learn and grow emotionally if this was so.

So that must mean that it is a good thing to struggle at times? Struggle is good? Oh...struggle makes us strong. Okay.
