When we loose things we love and are invested in, what else can we expect?  I will heal and mend, God does not leave us in a hole especially when we are faithful to the tasks He gives us to do... but giving up what He has give us to do is difficult.  For me it left a large hole, and I fell into that hole and am covered with saddness.   I have faith a rope will soon be extended and I will emerge into a playground of happy times again...... that is my hope, that is my prayer.  Want to bet?<br/><br/>

You are truly gifted from the heart.  Speaking of sadness and depression, I have lived both.  They are both painful experiences and to me, it's always been like falling into "the pit".  

I've cried until I could cry no more.  Especially since the grief of my mother's sickness through the months, knowing she was unhappy and suffering, I never felt so helpless in my life.

But I cry when I cry.  I don't want to hold it back.  I want my heart to heal.  I want to cleanse my spirit.  Sometimes it's almost unbearable, because the heart feels truly broken.  And you think the pain will destroy you.

But emotions are human.  They are a part of every human being.  And I've often thought how tragic society stigmas men and boys when they feel the need to shed tears!!  

I love to see a man be open to his heart, to his emotions.  I admire them.  My father, before he died, bless him, was a kind, tender man, who I have seen cry in front of me.  And God, how I loved him!  

Be ourselves.  Please, don't be afraid to cry.  Please feel from our hearts.  The world is so cold sometimes.  We need more people to care  from their hearts.  We need people to love, and need each other.<br/><br/>

Depression can be a web that gets bigger and bigger, it ensnare you until you feel so tangled, with no hope of ever getting out.  Your post gave such hope and a clear instruction on how to get out of that web and find happiness, by searching for what it is that makes you sad/depressed and heal it.  Bryan you have such a way with words when it comes to helping others. God Bless You!<br/><br/>

It's good to see a man valuing the self-affirmation and integrity of owning one's sadness. Men are just as sad as women (how could it not be so?) but in general are shamed much more intensely for showing it. The truth is, you can be tender-hearted (open-hearted) as well as strong, and only with a tender heart can one experience the full beauty and joy of life.<br/><br/>
