This title is perfection. Cornell would be proud.

Thanks Ms. M. If the lyrics said wash away my pain instead of rain I would have used them. By the way sometimes your profile takes me to The Long Way home and other times to your blog A Long Way Home.

I saw yellow first. And yellow is happy. And even when I read a quote I didn’t get it (my bad English). I noticed the tag “depression” and looked to the photo closer. This combination of yellow and black is a bit frightening indeed. But I think I’m in the mood of looking into an abyss. Though my mood isn’t best now.
I wish this yellow will help you to hold on. There are so much yellow around.

Depression is my default mood and since I’m Bipolar I swing in and out of it. Right now I’m not really depressed at all. I wanted to say something about a black hole and found this quote by my favorite author and loved it.

Well, the right time is anytime, Mike. It’s ok to be sad and to tell about it. Just the same as when you have good mood.

I think you are. What I meant is that Intellectuals (like you and me) tend to overthink things and create problems where there are none.

I saw people with low intellect who suffer from depression too. Intellect may help to overcome depression more effectively… or not 🙂 ok, intellect helps to make a choice more fully.

Not sure what this says about me but I found myself fixated on the bug. That is some black hole though. Nice pic.
