Do you ever feel sad? Like there is something inside you and you just cannot get it out? Like you are climbing that mountain, trying and trying, but you never reach the top? We all feel this way sometimes, some more than others. The heavy weight on our shoulders hinders us from accomplishing what needs to get done.

Our days look like thick gray fog, and we are trying to move through it. Slowly but surely, somehow we get around the day and it ends; then we go to sleep and start the process all over again. We are always numb and hungry for happiness. We never reach the goals we want; we are just lifeless living creatures.

Feeling sad is more than just a feeling. Sad is a way of life, a part of who we are. If sadness increases in our lives, then our lives will fall apart. More numbness in our life, more hate and depression, as we grow even more sad throughout the days.

It will get better, they say.

Well, we don’t feel that way. Try taking the pain we feel, live in our shoes and feel our emotions, and then we will see if you think it will get better. Don’t assume you know us. Don’t assume we actually care and don’t assume we want your opinion, your help. We don’t ask for your input, so stop giving it.
