This is important

"I hope to one day I see a sea of people all wearing silver ribbons as a sign that they understand the secret battle and that they celebrate the victories made each day as we individually pull ourselves up out of our foxholes to see our scars heal, and to remember what the sun looks like."  --The Bloggess

I start this new year by coming back here to share something much more important than I could ever write, by a very brave soul named Jenny. Go and read what she has to say, and remember that Depression and feelings of scarcity are very real, human and nothing to be ashamed of, but something we need to bring into the open, and acknowledge its overwhelmingness. Let's talk about it and stop letting it intimidate and bully our friends and loved ones into thinking they are not worthy.

Here's to you, 2012. I'm gonna dedicate you to being braver and being a friend.

Fight the silence surrounding depression and mental unhealth. 

I got help once when I needed it, and it was a turning point.
