There is a song that came out sometime in the 90s called Misery. By the group Soul Asylum. There's a line in the chorus or the bridge (I can't remember which) that says "frustrated incorporated."
Isn't that a fantastic line? Going on in the song it says something about starting a factory to make misery. I feel like I'm in that factory now. Maybe not the CEO, but definitely a vice president.
Have you ever felt so frustrated that you just want to get away and never come back? Or crawl in a hole and never come out? So broken that you don't remember how to listen to the Father when He speaks? Or have those moments where you don't know if He is trying to talk to you? Or felt that you've completely misunderstood everything up to this point in your life and you're not sure how to go about fixing it? I'm so there.
I didn't intend to bum everyone out, but I am not in the best place these days. I'm sorry. Just ignore the ramblings of a depressed woman.

don't worry about us trisha! we're good. and at least you are talking about it! bottling does no good, only harm. so keep it comin' babe, we can take it. we want to know about you and your struggles. doesn't it help just to know that you've got people out there in cyber space who love you? because we do!!! and everyone's been there. we understand, we empathize, sympathize, and if this is helping, keep doing it, please! you have some unique struggles of course, but that doesn't mean we can't help you bear your burdens. burdens shared are burdens halved. keep trying! don't give up! we love love love you!
Maybe keep some inspirational scriptures on note cards? Sometimes reading the book of Job can give people perspective on their own suffering. The book of Psalms has always been beautiful and inspirational to me, as well as the sermons of Christ in the New Testament.
Here are some inspirational scriptures I found for you. Of course, everyone has to find their own personal things that inspire and strengthen them.
2 Corinthians 12:9 And he said unto me, My grace is sufficient for thee: for my strength is made perfect in weakness. Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
Phillipians 4:13 I can do all things through Christ which strengtheneth me.
Colossians 1:11 Strengthened with all might, according to his glorious power, unto all patience and long suffering with joyfulness.
hey girl!
This too shall pass... In the meantime we'll be thinking of you and praying for you. And don't forget I can fly out if need be.
You truly are on a journey to happiness. Keep walking and please never forget the Savior carries us when we can no longer bear to walk.
Liz is right... Your friends want to share in the burdens. Hey you've done your part in bearing mine.
You have a lot of friends that value you, love you, respect you, admire you, look up to you,... Hold on to those truths.
Timpani, thank you for the verses. I needed 'em too. But don't you know that you're a mormon... Mormons don't read the Bible!! LOL!!!
