Feeling Down Today

Down and depressed days can swoop in on the unsuspecting heart like an owl at midnight on a rabbit grazing in the cool grass. The heart is taken aback and thrown into hopelessness under the weight of the seemingly unending circumstances that squeeze all lightness of spirit out. Everything can suddenly feel heavy and unmovable. 

Depression has a way of acting unpredictably for those who suffer with it. It can move in at a moment’s notice. The brain seems unexplainably primed for it sometimes.
