A few years ago someone said to me: "Depression is an illness. A downward spiral of every emotion intensified because of a heavy broken soul. Restless thoughts (also memories) that hunt the mind and scar the heart. Constant pressure and verbless put-downs, like someone telling you that you're worthless and you can't see them. The one thing that I would like to tell you is that your doing an AMAZING thing to cope with this issue. You got some, not only talent, but a huge gift of turning something miserable and sad into something encouraging, beautiful, and priceless. You keep this up and you wont even need luck in your life :) Just a pen and a piece of paper can go a long way."

I write to free my mind.
I write to ease the pain.
I write to feel relieved.
I write to rid the stress.
I write to be happy.
