First of all congratulations for your...Dear Yagian,<br />First of all congratulations for your almost full recover from the depression. I believe it is something that needs to be gradual, but if you are on the way to full recover, than that is a victory in itself. I can imagine how hard that process was. Actually, I believe depression will be a major issue in the 21st century because of the financial crisis. People got used in many countries to live with certain amenities and benefits, and these sounded as something guaranteed. However, with the crisis a lot of them will go away and people will most likely delve into depression one way or the other. The basic needs of our grandparents are so different from the basic needs of today's society. Hopefully, not as many people will suffer from depression, but to the ones that will...well, at least I hope they can take something positive out of it. And yes, I believe you are right, we cannot get to some things, some places, some lives without paying the price, and often the price is really too painful. I think mass media and consumption tries to smoother the price of the difficult choices that sometimes we have to make, and some of them are not only painful but last over the years and are hard to get away from. Life changing choices are always painful and hard, but the important thing is that we are aware that we did the right thing and that we will take the utmost out of what they offer. So one should feel proud for the choices that one takes as long as he or she assumes them. Like the music at the end of the movie "Life of Brian": always look on the bright side of life!Pumbahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10210016438003825539noreply@blogger.com
