i think one of the ways to heal from depression is to let yourself FEEL SAD and angry and dark and all the feelings you are told you "should" not feel or express. feel them all and express them all out!!!!!!!!!!

ironically/paradoxically the more i let myself feel dark and sad and angry the lighter i seem to become overall...happier when i allow my sadness to be.

it's natural to be sad sometimes and feel upset and angry. life is full of the full spectrum. i don't wanna deny or supress any of my emotions. i want them all to sit at the table and have tea. (as tori amos likes to say...i agree....make peace with all your sides inside)

instead of fighting your feelings and trying to get rid of them why not just be with them fully and indulge in all of them. cry, feel sad, walk through the fire and see whats beyond it.

i wanna get beyond the duality of happy/sad and be all of it. whole. not hole. but holy whole!!!!!!!!
