One of those days...

It´s one of those days - you know, when you feel depressed for no real specific reason. I suppose it´s the opposite of the "calm after the storm" effect. I had a few really amazing weeks, and now the high is kind-of wearing off. I have a tendancy of doing that - experiencing extreme emotions. I thought that the times of more negative feelings was brought on by a certain medication I was on while I was home (one of its possible side effects is depression), but I recently finished the prescription and I am experiencing it once again. Sure, it could be that the meds haven´t fully worn off yet, but I think it´s also cause I´m just human. Sometimes I wish that God would give me unending joy, and I know that He definitely can, but part of being human is learning to see the good in whatever is happening and to praise God in every circumstance.

Praying that God will send me someone who truly understands but who will also not let me sit and sulk, feeling sorry for myself. God, send me a mentor who I can look up to and learn a lot from. I know that I belong in You, but please give me that sense of belonging once more.

You are human - very normal really. I have had such times now and then. My best remedy is to get some extra sleep or go for a very long walk and just enjoy the beauty of our Creator all around me. My guess is that you are already feeling on top of things. Take care. Much love Grandma C.
