I realized yesterday that most of my posts lately have been real downers.  I apologize.  I'm really trying to dig my way out of this hole I'm in.  So then I thought I'd go look for some inspirational quotes to cheer us up, but unfortunately I could only find ones religious in nature, and those don't really sit well with me lately, I admit. I'm sure there are others out there, but in my blase state right now, I didn't put a whole lot of effort into finding some others.  Instead I typed "depression quotes" into my search engine and came up with a couple of cute ones that made me smile:
This is my depressed stance. When you're depressed, it makes a lot of difference how you stand. The worst thing you can do is straighten up and hold your head high because then you'll start to feel better. If you're going to get any joy out of being depressed, you've got to stand like this. ~Charlie Brown
"It's snowing still," said Eeyore gloomily.
"So it is."
"And freezing."
"Is it?"
"Yes," said Eeyore. "However," he said, brightening up a little, "we haven't had an earthquake lately."
~ A. A. Milne
From book Winnie the Pooh
"Good morning, Eeyore," said Pooh.
"Good morning, Pooh Bear," said Eeyore gloomily. "If it is a good morning, which I doubt," said he.
"Why, what's the matter?"
"Nothing, Pooh Bear, nothing. We can't all, and some of us don't. That's all there is to it."
"Can't all what?" said Pooh, rubbing his nose.
"Gaiety. Song-and-dance. Here we go round the mulberry bush."
~ A. A. Milne
From book Winnie the Pooh
“Life's disappointments are harder to take when you don't know any swear words.” ~ Calvin & Hobbes
“Life is like topography, Hobbes. There are summits of happiness and success, flat stretches of boring routine, and valleys of frustration and failure.”  ~ Calvin & Hobbes
