A quote:

I'm reading a great book right now called Welcome to my Country, by Lauren Slater.

As I am having problems posting anything these days, I thought I would quote something from this book that resonates with me:

"Imagine to love over and over again, and then to lose the love. Imagine fighting your way through days, sudden spurts of light, and then drought. Depression is a death within, a knowledge--terrifying--that you cannot resurrect yourself. Depression is loss of the vision that lets leaves breathe and fall, that lets the air smell of seed and soil. And there must be rage, yes I think there is rage toward such a severing, such a ragged deep rupture with the world."
