"To me, there are three things we all should do every day. We should do this every day of our lives. Number one is laugh, you should laugh every day. Number two is think, you should spend some time in thought. And number three is, you should have your emotions moved to tears, could be happiness or joy. But, think about it, If you laugh, you think, and you cry, that's a full day. That's a heck of a day. You do that seven days a week, you're going to have something special." -Jim Valvano North Carolina State Basketball Coach who died in 1993 at the age of 47 due to cancer.

I was diagnosed with Major Depressive disorder earlier this year so I know how you feel about "living" versus "merely surviving." I was also homeless on the streets of San Diego for nine months straight. I can remember being cold, tired, and hungry and suffering from poor circulation in both legs, that was survival, and looking back, I'm still not sure how I made it through that dark period. Keep fighting!
