Hope for the New Year

I dont have many words for you.

Depression is a great silencer, like a big blanket of freezing snow.

But here is a flower from my walk this morning.

Yellow is for hope, and the ice is melting... and the year has turned.

Happy New Year !

I was just about to text you, didn't know what else to do, afraid to pick up the phone...

Thought I'd check here first. Thank goodness.

I'll keep on thinking about you, but now not in ignorance.

*hug* I'm here if you need me.

I think "hope" is the theme for 2009 for me, too.

Love,

Chili

Friends in abundance here, Rosie, all on tap for comfort, laughter, meaningless blather, or just companionable silence until the snows recede.

I think of you often, you're a treasure!

Rosie said...

thanks for your comments all...you are a patient lot arent you!
It is a warming thought to imagine all those cyber best wishes being beamed at me in times of need.

I had wondered - glad to know you are hanging in there!

Ms Mac said...

Happy New Year to you too. Hope 2009 brings you all the happiness you could wish for.

I also live with The Black Dog and am considering medication for the dark months of January - March, but right now I find that kicking him firmly in the butt from time to time suffices....
I hope that you find relief soon as spring approaches and, hopefully, those beautiful Breton-blue skies return...

I too suffer from depression during the winter months, which doesn't exactly work when I live in the Seattle area!

Best wishes in overcoming!
