Life Advice
Apr. 3rd, 2009 05:45 pmPeace is a piece you achieve through Will and desire. If you desire happiness, you must Will it to happen. Depression can be fought. It is hard, but it can be done. Focus your Will and overcome it. Will is a bright fire, and the dark beasts of depression hate its heat and light. Start a bonfire in your soul to scare the dark beasts away. Dance around it, watching the sparks fly into the sky to become stars; let these stars guide you.
The Little Engine That Could had the beginnings of a good idea, but failed in the wording. Do not merely *think* you can, KNOW you can. Doubt is a mind-killer, not just fear; but doubt uses fear and fear uses doubt. Slay the demon of doubt. Stop looking for the evidence of your failures and look for evidence of your successes. Look for the signs that you are getting your Will, and more signs will appear. It is a Glorious Cycle, just as looking for the failures is a Vicious Cycle.
If you cannot believe in yourself, believe in the Universe/God/Whatever you want to call It.
