on the other side of the clouds

He, he -- so that's what I get for starting a blog on the cloudiest day in two weeks. To add to my intro, part of my life has been a very mild but persistent depression. Not deep enough to need medication, but enough to get me questioning the bigger decisions I've made on days when the sun doesn't shine, I don't swim, I don't watch my diet, or I don't keep up with my mental hygiene. Remember the scene in "Beautiful Mind" when the doc says, keeping sane and happy is like being on a diet? He's right. Then one day the effort of staying on the mental diet of good, productive thoughts is just too much, and you cry yourself to sleep, and the next day is much better. A new start.
Especially when I remember to bring upbeat music on my commute to work. Thank you, Monkees, for everything you did!
