very depressed
I am feeling very sad today.. so many bad things have happened in the past 4 months..I lost my brother in may ... cant cope with that
I lost my job in June due to budget cuts to education.. and I live very rural and jobs are scarce.. I send resumes out 4-5 a week and I have exhausted a 100 mile radius.. it seems.
I feel discouraged and alone..
I try to pretend to smile and that everything is wonderful and its not.. I try to be positive then get knocked down. again.. it just seems like I cant not get my head up. And I hate feeling out of control and alone.. Im strong so I hate feeling weak.
Any jokes to make me laugh would be appreciated..
I wrote some poems on poets corner.. some about my brother ( Gary Lynn, and Loss) and life and nature and my kids..

Peace Be With you
However, I am sure he would want you to be happy.
Life, unfortunately, is a very temporary experience.
It's much too short to waste it away lamenting about
the past. Simply put one foot in front of the other and try to enjoy it while you can. Perhaps take shortstop out to the park and meet some new friends.
Keep sending out those resumes, all you need is one "yes" among thousands of "no".
Persistence is a key to success in anything.
through the years i have lost many love ones including my dear father...
the last couple of years is much more difficult because of my divorce followed the death of my mother in law whom i love and adore so much. It seems the world fell down on my shoulder, but life must go on. It's not so easy but i found courage to move on with the help and support of my friends...
Life seems to be unfair but i always believe that things happen for a reason...
Besides, the strongest people are not those who always win but those who stand up when they fall....
don't lose courage....
He said that since early this morning the snow has been nearly waist high and is still falling.
The temperature is dropping way below zero and the north wind is increasing to near gale force.
His wife has done nothing but look through the kitchen window and just stare.
He says that if the storm gets much worse, he may have to let her in.
I do not have nay jokes but I have a hug and hopefully a word of comfort when I say that you do not struggle alone. Though many may not talk openly about their troubles we ALL have them some more some less but they are there.
Stay strong and surround yourself with good , sincere caring people....time makes all things better.
Don't lose your fighting spirits, do it for your kids! If you're a Christian just come to Jesus Christ, maybe this is the time to close to Him and receive His bless for you...
Your brother is in Heaven now (just believe) and watching you, to make sure that you keep strong and have faith in better future. Goodluck and God bless you!
Think of the great memories you still have of your brother,nothing can take those.
The job outlook, we all hope and pray will improve for you and everybody.Id' love to live in a rural area, thats the only reason I dont'.The scarcity of jobs.
Sometimes a temporary low dose anti-depressant may help.There's no stigma about taking it these days.Every human being is gonna struggle with depression at some point.
Joy many thanks..
