Depression

Q;  Today I was listening to a talk show on MPR.  A man called in and began to talk about his depression and stated he had tried to take his life before but it had failed.  I could tell he needed to talk to someone.  He needed help.  The guest talk host didn't know what to do so she blew him off.  My heart sank.  I had no way to reach this man to tell him he was loved and life is okay. Why do so many souls have so little time to really listen to someone?  People need to talk sometimes.  They don't need to be brushed off, made fun of, told that's stupid, or get over it. I have suffered with depression at times in my life.  Its not an easy place to get out of.  I know I had to choose to get out of it.  It wasn't easy either.

A: Depression is caused by many things and you are right - it is not an easy place to get out of.  You are one of the lucky ones, child. Many souls can't do that.  This world you trod in has many rules and regulations.  It is expected of all souls to fit into the mold society and religion set forth. Much is expected of each soul.  The sad part is many never realize what love truly is and how freeing it is to realize who and what you are. The soul and ego are both capable of creating peace within each soul, but many times the person will not accept it.;  One simply tries to be who and what they aren't. This produces an unrest within the soul.  They feel a lone and unloved because they can't accept what they are trying to be.  To be different isn't easy in this dimension. Love never separates or makes a soul feel less than another.  It allows each soul to be who they desire to be. It sets no molds to conform to, it never judges or condemns.

Q:  Why do we end up judging and forsaking those that are different?

A:  Because when someone does not fit into the mold society or religion created  - we all fear rejection - so we follow the norm and we reject them too.  It is sad for all.
