Today I ran across a bunch of the "3 beautiful things" blogs (the original 3BT and a bunch of "spin-offs"). Seems like something that might make me feel better about life. Right now, I'm in the blackest depression again, so soon after thinking I had found the miracle drug that would finally relieve me of the black beast.
So, for today, 3 things that make life seem worth living (or at least a little):
Neatloaf at the local health food restaurant run by the Sri Chinmoy people. I don't really know much about them -- just that they make great vegetarian food. This is good since Deb and I have decided to eat more vegetarian these days. That is, eat less meat, not eat more vegetarians. Although they probably taste pretty good, being so healthy and all.
Ah, what else? The rain, which the garden needed and is now happily soaking up. I'm cheating a little because the rain was actually yesterday, but I'll count it anyhow, since I'm running very short on things today.
Movies -- being able to insert my depressed self into a movie theater and come out 2 and a half hours later feeling much better.
Part of the pain of depression is the feeling and belief that it will never end. That I will always feel this bad until the day I die. It's good to be reminded that it's really only temporary. Even if it is recurrent, alas.
