I want to thank all my friends who wrote words of encouragement and offered up prayer, they really do help. I wish I knew how or why the depression lifts, I guess I could do some research but I don&#8217;t have the time right now. It is really a rather odd experience &#8211; life is good, life sucks, life is good &#8211; a cycle that keeps repeating itself. The intervals of good vs suck ebb and flow. Triggers that move me into or out of the sucky state, beats me.<\/p>\n<p>So what did I learn? Well, found out that I need to follow up with a couple of people about life things. That God is there even in the darkness though friends, family, and others. That I may have a voice speaking into subject of depression &#8211; don&#8217;t know what this will look like yet.<\/p>\n<p>I think I have more to say, but right now I am still processing things. Again, thanks to those who wrote, prayed, etc for me.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This is a follow-up to my blog posting entitled &#8220;Lost&#8221; a couple of weeks ago.
