Hi Hannah,
Happy New Year to you too! I'm delighted at how well the booklets have sold. There were only two left in Skerries last week (in Bright Ideas) and I'm going to Malahide today to see if there are any left there. We've done really well with them.
Looking forward to seeing you on Thursday!

Hey megan! Its me, Hana, your die-hard. You never told me you had a website, or wrote a blog! Pretty cool, and your right with the choice you made, and eventually, a publisher will come along and thoroughly enjoy and admire your kind of writing, and so will others. Your an awesome writing teacher, and iwouldn't be were i am now if it wasn't for you!

Good on you. You follow your heart as it will lead you to your ultimate destination (wherever and whenever that may be). You've chosen the path less travelled and you have my admiration and support for that.

Hi Jess,

Thank you for your comment. It was very brave of you to say how you feel and I'm sorry it has taken me so long to reply. I'm so glad that you have your Mum and your kids, and even more importantly, perhaps, your faith.

I think one way through very dark times is to congratulate ourselves on every small achievement e.g. making ourselves and others breakfast, tidying the house. With children you are probably doing many tasks like that every day.

I was talking to an experienced counselor recently about depression and she said that after all the complicated research into why some people are depressed and others aren't, the answer the experts have come up with is very simple: happy people do things they enjoy/like doing every single day, depressed people don't. If she asks a depressed person to write a list of all the things they enjoy doing, and then to tell her when was the last time they did them, most say it has been months or years. Therefore the problem is they have stopped living and started thinking, which is a dangerous thing to do.
Now I know this is very simplistic, and the reason the depressed person hasn't played the guitar or gone out for a coffee is probably because they ARE depressed. However, research (and my experience) has also shown that if the depressed person does just one thing during the day that they enjoy, it can lead them to do another, and before long they begin to feel better.It may feel odd at first; doing nice things when we are so used to not doing them. However, I have been practicing this theory, and it is working. I went out for a cup of tea and a flapjack. I went to a farm and cuddled a lamb. I played tennis. Today I am going to do yoga. I am beginning to sound, and feel like, a happy person. Is there anything that you can do today that you like or enjoy? Some small treat to soothe your soul? You won't feel better instantly (I don't think) but a a build up of small enjoyable steps can bring hope back to our hearts.

love,

Megan

I can relate to this because i feel the same as late Alan, may his soul rest in peace.
IAs deverstating as these feeling might be, the only thing that is keeping going everyday are my faith, kids and my mum. Most times I ask myself why am here? I may not have a specific answer to that.I hope that one day I will freedom with my existence.
