Claim Your Life

March 15, 2005

"Depression might have chosen you, but you don't have to choose it back. Sometimes happiness comes with bootstraps, but so what? Pull 'em up. Choose joy. Claim your life."

~ Marrianne Williamson

This quote is from an article about depression by Marianne Williamson. Worth a read if you're feeling a bit down and need some practical advice on how to pull yourself out of it.

I love the quote and I went on to read the article.Having had a bad childhood which led to many years as a junkie, I am fully aware of depression. How true that article is. I had to make the decision to get out of this depression about myself and work on feeling happy. It was very hard because I had never really been happy. It is still something that I have to work on every day, but I am happy now and like myself and life. Very good read. Thank you!
