Between two points

Your brick story

I'm not up and I'm not down - I am somewhere in between. And even though I am between the two I am sad about a few things so now I know that I am able to be sad without being depressed. This is new - sadness has always been a constant companion of depression so it is interested that they are now separated. It is so much easier to just be sad and not sad and depressed. So much easier.

Where do I find my natural balance? I don't know what is enough for me. Knowing enough of who I am so that I can work out what will be enough for me to maintain a balance. What is it that sustains me?

When I am dust this won't matter but until then I suspect it will.

What is it that sustains you? Courage, love, rage, hunger for truth, peace - you sustain you with your own true self, you do.
When we are dust, nothing will matter to us, but to those we leave behind, everything matters.
Being sad is good - it is the engaging of an emotion that you feel, which means that you are in touch with your own depths.
Travel safely, sister.

Sadness being 'so much easier' sounds good, UM. It sounds like a sort of feet up on a pouffe, resting, gentle, relieving sort of feeling. I always think gentle sadness can offer so much closure to issues if we can just go with it and let it flow.
Take care. xxH
