Happiness

Happiness

Happiness is fleeting 

Happiness is the sound of the keys under my fingers

Happiness is in the simplest things

Sand through toes, morning kisses

Warm and sleepy

Happiness is good food with good friends 

Warm hearts, soft glow

The secret is to be content where you are. 

I didn't get much compared to the previous one, but I guess happiness

really is that much more simple. and sweet.

The Destroyer

Depression is

Learning to live with heightened sensitivity 

Grieving so much for all the pain in the world you don't want to be part of it anymore 

Depression is Changing you 

And Telling you you need to change things in your life

Depression is Making everything harder 

Depression is trouble holding your heart in a fast grip

Working out the best way to send yourself into the big unknown 

Depression is making a big fat black hole in the fabric of your current reality

Letting you know in bouts of startling lucidity that if you don't work things out you will die 

Yet in equally startling bouts of lucidity in happy times comes the knowledge that life is worth living

Depression is Making death seem like the easy way out of the murky waters that your consciousness has become

Depression is Feeling like you're constantly drowning 

Depression is cutting you off the rest of the living because you're already half dead

Depression is when everything in your life feels like it has reached its terminal stage and you keep running out of battery.

Depression is when death looks like a freaking holiday, even though it very probably isn't. But it's still tempting.

Depression makes you think Valium is the best drug in the world, ever.

Depression makes you feel like a worthless piece of shit

Depression makes you believe the people that tell you bad things about yourself. 

Recently I started one about Happiness.

Oh and I'm going to skip the winter this year. ;)

Goodbye Queens Parade...

All that work over the past few years is coming to a close, at least in terms of premises.
Of all the things I ever managed to do in my life, maybe this one was the biggest to date.
Running a business takes over your life. And sometimes you do need a few months break.

All Welcome x
