lets talk about the national R U OK day. its a great concept. and tonight my 13 yr old stepdaughter asked what it was about after seeing the add on tv. Then she said that she knew all of her friends were ok and didnt have depression because they were all so bubbly and happy. When we explained that most people with depression were like that. Thats why R U OK is such an important thing to ask. Miss 13 then asked how was it even possible for people to pretend to be happy and ok if they wernt. The day is great it gets people talking and for that 1 day and perhaps a few days after people go around asking other people if they are ok. then it stops and people start pretending again. For those that have cared and do frequently dig deeper than a hi how are (I really dont care for the answer and I hope you say good so we can continue on with our busy days) Thank you. for those who see past my bitichiness at times when I snap or may say the wrong thing, and then ask me for a coffee , thank you. for those who send me an inbox regardless of the time you are awake for me to read when i wake up.... thank you. to those who really are interested in getting an honest answer from me when you ask how I am..... or for seeing the truth when I hurridly reply yeah im good but know im really not..... thank you. to every one else.... AM I OK????? NO im not. I have a whole lot of stuff happening in my life right now. oh I will get through it. I have learnt skills to deal with life better than I did 3 years ago. I changed as a person for good or bad in 2005 when my father died. I am changing and growing as a person once again. some will see it as a good thing others a bad thing. one thing is certain tho...... When I ask how someone is I am always ready to hear their reply and will always have an ear if they need to talk. I may not have the best advice to give..... but having someone listen.... sometimes thats all that is needed.
