Wow Wendi – You’re bringing back a lot of memories. I remember the song and do you know, I didn’t realize it was about depression. I think I just liked to hear her sing it, and singing along.

You’ve brought up some great points. There are many who are depressed and if we can be a beacon of light. Like you said, we just need to be more aware. Thanks for the reminder.

isn’t it wonderful wendi….
when karen carpenter sang the song…do you think she knew that decades later the words of the song would be a trigger to people to grow, to love to become?
we just have no idea how are daily acts can change the world.
you are changing the world wendi every time to lift our vision to new heights.

I have always loved that song (even though it does sound depressing reading it within your post). I have friends that are usually down and it is tricky to balance being a positive light and being a friend that allows them to just be still in what they are feeling. Do they want me to be a light or do they just want me to sit quietly with them in the darkness. Sometimes it’s hard to know the best way to help.

It is always good to practice some compassion for others. A word to comfort and heal can mean much to the other person, perhaps far more than we realize. Let us choose to say words that uplift others rather than be unaware of the bad day that they may just be going through. Evelyn Lim's last blog post..Can You Read My Mind?
