Where Did I Begin?

And when will it end?

Starting out I honestly don't know where and when it happened. I also don't know where it'll end. I feel like I'm walking a never ending road. I try to turn around, move sideways, run forward, walk, crawl, run...and no matter what it remains the same. Somedays I feel like I've made progress, and I finally figured it out. But then I wake up and realize it was nothing but a cruel dream of where I could be. I think to myself maybe there's a way to make it go away. Maybe there's an easy out and I'll never have to worry about when or where it'll end. I won't have to walk a continuous road to what feels like nowhere anymore. It would just be gone and I would never feel more free. Suddenly a light appears before me; It's a reflection of the never ending road I've walked. All the strength and motivation I used to keep moving finally paid off. All along, I traveled so far and I finally realized, I traveled a great distance. It makes me want to keep going and travel even further than I already have. I can't remember how it started and I don't know where it'll lead me, but what I do know is, I'll find myself a better end.

Depression may cause you to feel a disconnection to your life. Somedays feel like you're on a never ending road that leads you to no where and feel like nothing is within your reach, and it gets heavy. Sometimes, more often than not, it gets too heavy. If you can find one thing that can assure you it gets better or even help you snap into reality that you've come so far, use it to help motivate continue to move forward and more farther than you ever have. The light shining within will guide you to a better place; there is a better end.
