Eagle,

I am so looking forward to receiving your book, you have such a wonderful way with words and expression. I just wanted to share something here and see if anyone else agrees with this analogy.

We recently started attending a wonderful church in St. Ann's, ON this spring and after my meltdown, I went to talk to the pastor there. I just felt I could talk with him and my gut instinct was right. He shared with me that he's struggled with depression for a lot of years and understood what I was talking about. But, something he shared with me has stuck firm...his analogy is that people that suffer depression feel more deeply and soulfully than most others, thus rendering depression. He assured me that he didn't feel this was the only cause but that it helped feed the depression. I don't know about all the others here, but I can definitely relate to that analogy as I was always wanting to bring home everything and everybody to fix them and make them better.

Just a few thoughts here.

Hugs,

Mary
