Pittsburg, Kansas | Depression is in the mindset.
Times are difficult, that is for sure.
But depression because of difficult times is in the mind. You can choose to see the best there is to see if you want to.
The alcoholics anonymous serenity prayer is a good way to look at difficult times.
God grant me the serenity To accept the things I cannot change; Courage to change the things I can; And wisdom to know the difference. Living one day at a time; Enjoying one moment at a time; Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace; Taking, as He did, this sinful world As it is, not as I would have it; Trusting that He will make things right If I surrender to His Will; So that I may be reasonably happy in this life And supremely happy with Him Forever and ever in the next. Amen.
