Thirty years of my life I am told that those glowing red embers in the fire are hot. Thirty years of my own experiences have told me that the closer I got to those embers, the more I could feel the heat.
“It’s not true”, says my Psychologist. “You can’t let what others say affect your entire life. It was your depression making you feel a heat that wasn’t really there.”
“Now, go ahead, reach into those flames and grab a big handful of those embers.

“You can’t let what others say affect your entire life. this is true! but hard to do! i have a hard time dealing with this myself, if only we could destroy the root cause of depression, it’s in our minds, we are in control of it but for some reason we can’t let it go? i wish there was a way to wipe it out with out getting a lobotomy. but i will say this if you dwell on other things that really matter, and say to hell with what doesn’t, things will improve.
