Hi all

I wake up each day and wonder, if this is all to life. I feel the tension and racing thoughts of my mind, thinking how things should be etc etc. Its like having a heavy burden that we carry everywhere we go and you know its tiring, exhausting. I dont know how to let go of this. My mind is full of worries! endless. I dont actually know how to live my life! I am having problems identifying things for myself. I am low and going through depression which never seems to get any better, please help.

wake up most morning with racing thoughts about who i am upset with and how my life sucks and just another day to get through one sucky task after another. so i gave my self permission to have a good day, did positive affrimations, prayed for peace, and reminded myself that i am a prisoner of those that i let my thoughts obscess on. is that all there is? feel the same way alot, but then i think about people that get cancer and know they are going to die. each day is a blessing to them and they tell us to cherish every day. also remind myself to look for the positive in others and situations. rather than the negative. this is my advice and what i do when i feel like this. hope this helps

Been thinking about God a lot lately myself! Really getting it on with the "big man"! Tuning into his creation in nature...it really helps me tune out the clutter of this world, with its rather trivial cares and concerns. "Over there", on the other side, and I believe there is an other side, is better than this place.

agree koolman. been leaning this way also. pma- read my posting about worry and you will know you are not alone. lol

Yep, I feel you. I feel that way myself often enough for it to be upsetting, and more often in the past. It's a trick the mind plays on itself - thinking that things are never going to change, never going to improve, that this is it, forever and ever amen.

You're coming here. You're venting. You're sharing your thoughts and yes, your accomplishments too.

I believe that nothing is forever, and this too, shall pass.

((hugs))

Sometimes we just need to look at life in a DIFFERENT way. Yes, it is what it is, and it sucks, but, if we come at it with love instead of indignation, suddenly it doesn't suck so bad.

Change what you can, and the rest, let it flutter about around us as it may. I like your new swimming exercise routine!!!
