Depression...We are One...We are ALL

I have just finished a book on some of the experiences that my husband and I have gone through over the past two years. I have searched long and hard and have tried to see every angle, to find any and all solutions or answers to the questions. I have dug as deep as I have ever thought possible and brought up every ounce of positivity, clarity and good vibe that I could find and reach. And still I continue to journey. (Glimmers of Hope)

We hear so much about depression. I had not considered that I have suffered from or with depression, but today I wondered about it. Depression is often referred to as either a disorder or illness. Disorder suggests that something, somewhere is our of order (Dis) and (Order). That could certainly signify what I have been going through.  Illness suggests something that is 'caught' perhaps or something that 'happens to us,' a period of sickness affecting the body or mind. Perhaps, maybe. Disease refers to an abnormal condition that affects the body of an organism. Well, then I have to define abnormal. Society, as I see in its currency, is rather in an abnormal state. A state of Disease, Disorder, Depression. Society itself may be ill.

With this, I have learned. I would also say that much of our society is experiencing some degree of Depression and we have turned a blind eye to it. Depression affects not only oneself (sleeping, insomnia, headaches, eating habits, general health), but also significantly impacts families, personal relationships, work, and classmates. Signs of Depression includes preoccupation of thoughts, feelings of worthlessness, inappropriate guilt or regret, helplessness, hopelessness, and self-hatred and often causes one to withdraw from social situations and activities. It can also bring forth thoughts of suicide.

I have gained so much awareness and I am grateful. With all of the thoughts that ran through my head, I managed to access every ounce of courage on this day and met my cousin today for lunch. I am grateful for my guides and spirits for helping me get there, for it was *there* that I made a new discovery.

In this era of the 'me,' it does seem that too many have forgotten about the WHOLE (Us). We have forgotten to put SPIRIT first.  By way of the 7 Sacred Teachings, ♥HUMILITY♥ HONESTY♥ TRUTH♥ BRAVERY♥ WISDOM♥ RESPECT♥ LOVE♥ the Whole will Be. We cannot separate, we must learn, we must choose to accept all into our hearts, souls, consciousness.

♠We are ONE..We are ALL♠

Love...To Love without condition is to Know Peace.
Respect...To Honor all Creation is to have Respect.
Bravery...To Face the Foe with Integrity and Compassion.
Honesty...To Be Honest in Word and Action, first with self, and you will more easily be able to be honest with others.
Humility...To Know Oneself as the Sacred Part of the Creation. You are equal to but you are not better.
Wisdom..To Cherish Knowledge and Use it for the Goodness of All
Truth...To Live All of These Things.

This Depression that so very many are feeling is a Good Sign. A good sign in a way that so many know that there is a better way, that there is good in the world and it has not been forgotten. A good sign that what we know in the way that so much of what we are offered and shown just does not make sense and is just wrong. (I call this the Kevin OLeary factor). This should be the ORDER rather than the DISorder of our society and has led to the Depression. So, if you are suffering from a society that just seems wrong, find and go to the places that offer support of the spirit, support of self and support of society. This could be a place of worship. Keep searching until you find the place that fits, that feels right. Go to many different places and take what you can from each and all of these places. This is where the Dis-Ease of Society Depression will be mended and healed. It does begin within each and all of us. Put Spirit ahead... first... before all the rest and the rest will be given unto you.
