New Things!!

Recently I have made a few changes as the fall starts rolling in. My best friend Angela reminded me of all the things she has done and inspired me to write about mine as well. In the last month a good friend of mine died. I was very depressed at the end and shortly after this tragic occurrence and my parents who saw my misery decided it was time to get some help. I am currently on anti-depressants and see a therapist every Wednesday. The pills have really helped so far and I can sleep through the night too which also helps. Tomorrow is my second visit to the therapist and I am very much looking forward to it.


My doctor suggested that I take a sleeping pill before bed and wait an hour for it to take effect. I took advantage of this and started reading or writing to wind down. Quiet time has been incredibly peaceful and until now I didn't realize how much I really missed reading. In my room I have a full hour to myself for whatever I choose and it has helped my sleeping patterns as much as it has helped my ever changing mood.



As Autumn is rolling around soon I took some time for retail therapy and bought things I felt would truly improve my day to day life. I bought new candles and car scents from bath and body works. I got some new books (for my nightly readings). I even went as far as to start decorating so when I come home from work there is an inviting fall room to just be at peace in. With a few leaves hanged on pictures, lamps, and tables I have a fall bedroom. My dad bought me a chord so now I can charge my phone from my loft without my computer. As the season changes I feel that I should do the same.

Ecclesiastes 3:1-8

There is a time for everything,

and a season for every activity under the heavens:

a time to be born and a time to die,

a time to plant and a time to uproot,

a time to kill and a time to heal,

a time to tear down and a time to build,

a time to weep and a time to laugh,

a time to mourn and a time to dance,

a time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,

a time to embrace and a time to refrain from embracing,

a time to search and a time to give up,

a time to keep and a time to throw away,

a time to tear and a time to mend,

a time to be silent and a time to speak,

a time to love and a time to hate,

a time for war and a time for peace.
