Sea of Depression

In our lives, sometimes we feel unsure about things.

Sometimes we are scared of new surroundings.

Most of the time, we let our doubts and our fears hold us back.

So much of our focus is placed on the daily worries that we face, rather than the little spurts of happiness that pass us by.

When we choose to focus on our worries and our fears, we are blinded to the opportunities of utter bliss that arise.

We lose sight of happiness, and instead dive into a sea of depression.

Optimism is no longer a factor, only thoughts filled with sadness...

Doubt...

Fear...

Worry...

Only these remain.

Instead of focusing on the positive, we ignore it and focus on the negative.

It is human nature.

Some depressing things have recently been brought to my attention and I do not know how to go about handling them.

Hard decisions lie in the journey ahead of me, but I must continue.

I must jump into the sea of depression.

But, I will do it with this on my mind:

Stay strong. Do not focus on the worries and the fears, but instead look at the little things, the things that could potentially bring you happiness.

I am going to jump into the sea with the state of mind of a child:

Always looking for the next thing to brighten my day and bring me what we all fail to enjoy.

Happiness.
