I try and look how many people are worse off health and otherwise than me, then ask myself wtf get over it!

Some dogs live better then humans 4-Sure... WTF = Where's The `Fun ? Sorry, I must go & find some white wine. I'll try 2 get back b-4 I have to return to work I've been working like a dog ~>

 

That dog picture is great Space! That will make people cheer up.

 

We all feel drepressed occasionally. It's part of life.
Seeing something funny tends to break the mood.

 

I think what gets me is loneliness and how distant i sometimes feel from people. That's what im feeling right now and usually is the cause.

 

Wow great article space!

How ironic that you deceided to post this when you did....
8 more days would be the 15th anniversary of our horrible wreck...
Thats the day the mrs and I were hit on our new harley, By a 19 yr old girl who was also drunk at the time...That killed my wife of 10 yrs instantly..
left me mamed with an amputation of my left leg 10"s above my knee...along with to many more injurys to mention....(Its a long list)
(This happened Sept 28th 1997)

Spent 8 months in the hospital,died twice (woke up the 2nd time in the morgue with a toe tag in a body bag)....When I finally did come to out of the coma... 6 weeks later...I thought it was the next day.(after the wreck) and thats when I found out my wife was dead and already buried.(They buried her 3 days after the wreck)....

It took them 2 1/2 yrs to teach me how to walk and talk again...!!
Long story short....
I went thru all those signs and symtoms.. of depression and suicide!
The only reason I didnt....Kill myself..is this:

My then wife and I before bedtime 1 night made a deal....

We said to each other:
God forbid anything would happen to one or the other! But, we'd expect 1 or the other to go on with there lives, should something happen...

You see this all came about on our decision...Because both of us were recovering addicts...Its been 32 yrs since I last partaked in that abuseive behavior...and I owe it to her....
She was 5 yrs clean..when we met...I was a "newbie". She was the one who saved my life. She taught me how to be "HUMAN" again...

How to be responsible, How to go to work everyday, How to laugh, how to love and how to cry....I literally owe my life to her!!!!

All my family and other friends thought:
I was going to go back to drugs and that abusive behavior just to kill myself eventually...

But you see I couldnt do that to Cindy! (My deceased wife)
Not just because of our "agreement"...

But you see, That would be sabotageing all those great gifts she gave to me!

The saying goes:
You cant keep it until you give it away!

I owe the life I now have to her for sure...Ya its not the same without her...But, I met someone in 2003 and married her in 2004...and its been a blessing ever since!
I truly believe, She sent this person to me at my lowest point in my life...
So that the gifts she gave werent all in vein!

It'll be 8yrs in October that the new mrs (Lizzy) and I will have been married...

Just when you think life is going to kick your ***....
You just never know whats around the corner!

So, when you think your at the end of your rope, and cant hang on anymore!
Tie another knott in it and hang on tighter...

Heres why!

Lifes a "Gift"..why do you think they call today... The "Present" ?????

 

 

I was depressed & then I seen a SuperSuper Looking Monte Carlo

I just share cause I care > I hope that you do to

 

Lot of posts on depresion today. I was kinda down when I got up this morning, read Keane's post in this morning's blog and then felt justified in being down.

I had no reason to be down (other than I had to go to the office today and was not retired yet). Wifey is retired andI would have loved to spend the day with her.

But you know I just forced my mind not to be negative, told myself my job gets me mods for the Deuce and I had a great car show to goto this week end with a good friend. I kicked myself in the butt and told myself to "Snap out of it" as my parents used to tell me as a child. I could be down today for sure if I let myself.

 

i get that Seasonal affective disorder in the winter, hate it.
