I've dealt with family all my life who were in depression to the point of feeling suicidal. I have learned that I have to try my best to find happiness not based on my circumstances. It's never as easy as I would hope. Sometimes almost impossible but it's my goal. There are many things that do give me joy in my life. They are:
1. My daughter and husband.
2. Candles
3. Dark Chocolate
4. Beautiful sunshiny days and calm warm rains.
5. Quiet classic guitar.
6. My work - with children. Yes it has it's ups and downs as well but because I know it's where my heart desires to be then I am even happy in a small corner of my heart when things get difficult.
7. My daughter's hair. It is pale, almost white, blonde, Long, and as fine as silk. I love to watch it while she plays.
