Love is being honest with yourself at all times being honest with the other person at all times telling, listening, respecting the truth and never pretending Love is the source of reality.

The most painful love there is, is the love left unshown

A love that cannot be expressed, affection left unknown

The love that withholds touching,afraid of what it would say

And the most painful thing about unexpressed love is..,

it never fades away.

Come into the mountains, dear friend Leave society and take no one with you But your true self Get close to nature Your everyday games will be insignificant Notice the clouds spontaneously forming patterns And try to do that with your life.

I was always a happy and loving person. Many would say that I was living an idyllic life.

If every decision would reflect our feelings as well as our reason, the world would be a better place to live.

My own life was filled with so much love and joy that when depression struck, it was like a prison door slamming shut and I was being placed in an isolation cell. No one else could possibly be feeling what I was. I hated my depression and all of its symptoms.

Good friends must not always be together; It is the feeling of oneness when distant That proves a lasting friendship.

When someone cares... it is easier to speak, it is easier to listen, it is easier to play, it is easier to work. When someone cares it is easier to laugh.

Sometimes you think that you need to be perfect, that you cannot make mistakes ... realize you are a human being -- like everyone else capable of reaching great potential but not capable of being perfect.

Don't compare yourself to anyone. Be happy to be the wonder unique, very special person that you are.

Go beyond yourself and reach out to other people with a sincere love, respect, caring, and understanding of their needs.

There are many people that we meet in our lives. But only a very few will make a lasting impression on our minds and hearts.

Since I can't be with you right now I will have to be content just dreaming about when we will be together again.

If you have a goal in life that takes a lot of energy, that requires a lot of work, that incurs a great deal of interest and that is a challenge to you, you will always look forward to waking up to see what the new day brings.

Spreading the word about depression is my mission. I am working to build awareness, educate people about the symptoms, and change public opinion and individual attitudes about depression.

This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well.

This life is yours. Take the power to choose what you want to do and do it well. Take the power to love what you want in life and love it honestly. Take the power to walk in the forest and be a part of nature. Take the power to control your own life. No one else can do it for you. Take the power to make your life happy.

Getting better from depression demands a lifelong commitment. I've made that commitment for my life's sake and for the sake of those who love me.

It's often difficult for those who are lucky enough to have never experienced what true depression is to imagine a life of complete hopelessness, emptiness and fear.

Let us dance in the sun, wearing wild flowers in our hair.
