I was feeling so down a few minutes ago ...
and I had nobody at this immediate hour to talk to . So I turned to this Christian channel , I am feeling very low ( this has not been a very good month for me for a lot of reasons ) and I had nobody to talk to at this immediate hour . I needed to hear a voice so I called the number on the screen , and you know what , it was'nt any Freeper stuff that I expected . I told the lady how I was feeling empty - I have money , nice clothes and a family and I am still empty . I told her about how I feel this negative energy around me at work and you know what - take the Christian/ Relgious veil away from it all , she actually helped . There are universal themes ( of course I should know that ) and that is everything will be good in due time - I should know that as well but sometimes it better hearing somebody else saying it .

2. As someone once told me during a dark period of my life:

All's well that ends well.

If all is not well, you're not yet at the end.



Or something like that. It gave me hope and perked me up.

6. I do hope you're feeling a bit better
:hug:

Hope is a thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings a tune without words
And never stops at all.

And sweetest, in the gale, is heard
And sore must be the storm
That could abash the little bird
That keeps so many warm.

I’ve heard it in the chilliest land
And on the strangest sea
Yet, never, in extremity
It ask a crumb of me.

Emily Elizabeth Dickinson.

7. Sounds like your personal life is great,, who could ask for anything..
more. Don't let jerks or circumstances at work get you down and that is often easier said than done. Believe me I KNOW but I try to refocus on the positive and diminish the negative.
