I've felt depression for a long time. I remember the moment I chose it freshman year of college when I just didn't want to take responsibility for my life anymore. I'm finally ready to say, this is enough. This blog is my commitment to living with joy. It's really easy to feel scared in this world, but there is a lot of joy here if we are willing to open to what this earth has to give us! I'll post the little ways we can add more joy to our lives. I hope you can commit to finding your own joy!

#7: Think of the people you care about
I'm pretty far from home out in California, haven't known anyone here for more than a year. So its very easy for me to feel very alone. This morning, sitting in that state of aloneness, all of a sudden the feeling hit me of how much I love some people. How for my family, and certain friends, I would drop anything. I'm often very self-absorbed and the experience of really taking time to imagine the people I love, to bless them, and feel how much I want them to be happy, was blissful. So....take time to just pray for the people you love. For some reason, it almost hurts to send that much care.
