Musical Monday: Be Ok

I’m finally participating in Musical Monday  again after what seems like forever. It has not been that long really. I just have been feeling very uninspired lately, thus no blog entries!

This song by Ingrid Michaelson without doubt represents my feelings for the past year. My depression has been getting worse over the last few months and I hate to feel this way. I truly just want to be okay!

I really do. Being depressed is a drag .It makes me feel so negative , hopeless and guilty. It’s all such a waste of time. I realize all this and yet I can’t shake it. I’ve tried all the meds. None of them seem to work really. Maybe I need something other than meds…Yes, probably. I keep searching for the answers and
I keep reminding myself  to be mindful of my blessings and the fact that you can’t change the past and it’s a must to keep moving forward.
Some days though it’s so hard to stay positive. But I will keep trying and hope that “I will be ok”.
I have to be for the sake of my family.
Meanwhile I will listen to inspiring music like the one shared by all the wonderful bloggers that participate in Musical Monday.

Musical Monday is hosted by Diane over at Goodmorningglory.com ,Check it out!

    Welcome back to MM! I love Ingrid Michaelson. She's coming to Tampa this week and I'm hoping my DH surprises me with some tickets.

    Depression is a vicious beast and I hope you over come whatever is weighing you down.

    i was gonna say you'll be ok, but really, you already ARE!! tell all that cloudiness around you to kiss off. you can already almost see past it anyway, and you know you deserve better. try to just dive headfirst into something you know is positive. go all in. yeah, it's sorta a 'fake it till you make it' technique, but sometimes it works.

    more and more lately i'm feeling ok because i've been clinging a lot more to my spirituality. and i quit taking my medicine.

    i'm here for you!!!

    Carly;

    My son also suffers from depression, it's a struggle most days for him too. Hang in there,keep searching for the right medicine. My son takes a combo of two meds.
    I love your song, I've heard it before but it has new meaning to me now!

    Depression is the worst...if I had a magic solution I'd share it...after first using it myself.

“Roses and thorns are parts of the same plant. Somehow though, some people are concerned mainly about the roses. The rose is not on the plant for more than a week, but the thorns are there forever. Roses are teaching that the beauty of life will bloom, once you have taught yourself the lessons given by living with the thorns.”  ―  Grigoris Deoudis This post is part of the  Nature Footstep meme.  A meme all about flowers and macro shots.

Happy Sunday! I decided to start an "Artist of the Week " post to do on Sundays!It's a good way to learn more about the  different styles of each artist. This week in keeping with my Mexico theme, I will feature the  fabulous    Frida Kahlo : Frida was born on  July 6th, 1907 in Coyoacan, Mexico to a Hungarian-Jewish father a nd a mother of Spanish and Mexican Indian descent. She was one of four daughters. Frida did not plan to become an artist .She had been studying Medicine at the " Escuela Nacional Preparatoria" in Mexico City. Out of 2000 students, Frida was one of only 35 women accepted into the prestigious institution. However in 1925  at the age she was severely injured in a bus accident in  which she suffers fractures to her spine, collarbone and ribs, a shattered pelvis, and shoulder and foot injuries. While she is bed-ridden and encased in a body cast   Frida began to paint lying in bed with a special easel r...
