Lamentations 3:37

"Who is he that saith and it cometh to pass when the Lord commandeth it is not"
-- Lamentations 3:37


Ah there it comes.

Here comes the bipolar swing again, a big one , goes to the sad pole this time.
This must be how bordering the edge of lunacy feels like.

A small family feud does the tip-over this time.
Retreating into my shell of misery , I start the self-sustaining manic-depressive cycle.
Looking at the world through narrow jaundiced eyes, fail to find any joy anywhere.

Of course , I do have family and friends trying to coax me out of it.
But asking a depressed person to come out of depression is like asking a diabetic to start producing insulin.

I do not have any reason to be really depressed, I am afflicted by the commonest of problems.

Hey , who doesn't have trouble brewing in their work-life ?
And does everyone get a US visa on first try ?
And who doesn't have family fights once in a while ?
And who doesn't have to juggle with finances ?

The issue , I think , is the fact that all of the above happened right around the same time.

I now take solace in the hope that it will swing to the other side soon and I will be back to my normal happy self again .
