Your Word is "Think" You see life as an amazing mix of possibilities, ideas, and fascinations. And sometimes you feel like you don't have enough time to take it all in. You love learning. Whether you're in school or not, you're probably immersed in several subjects right now. When you're not learning, you're busy reflecting. You think a lot about the people you know and the things you've experienced. What's Your Word?

My first mantra for 2009

Borrowed lines from somewhere: "To love means to open ourselves to the negative as well as the positive - to grief, sorrow, and disappointment as well as to joy, fulfillment and an intensity of consciousness we did not know were possible before." All good wishes to everyone who's happen to be passers-by of this blog.

Counting our blessings this Christmas

Ailments and all, each one deserves a merry Christmas. Forget all the physical pain, the worries and the anxieties. Think only of what's good in our life and the hope for a new beginning. To me these are the keys to joy and happiness during this season. Merry Christmas Everyone! Cheers!

Me, depressed during this merry season?

I didn't know that depression can be characterized in so very many ways. Somehow, I have forgotten my Psychology 11, which I took many, many, years ago. Wikipedia says that depression could be be melancholic. It is characterized by a loss of pleasure (anhedonia) in most or all activities, a failure of reactivity to pleasurable stimuli, a quality of depressed mood more pronounced than that of grief or loss, a worsening of symptoms in the morning hours, early morning waking, psychomotor retardation, excessive weight loss (not to be confused with anorexia nervosa), or excessive guilt. I wonder, do I have it? Periodically, I suffer from some or even most of the symptoms described. Even if I try hard to rise above the condition, it just won't go away. I have always wanted to go to a health professional, but the cost of getting "help" might even depress me more :-) To learn more of depression, see here and here .
