Count Your Blessings, Find Ways To Fight Depression During the Holidays

It's Christmas time.
For our family, it's also vacation time and we are resting, relaxing and enjoying fun time together.
But there are also times this year that I struggle with my depression.

We lost a baby this year, back in August, and I am still struggling with fertility issues.
A sweet friend died this morning, another friend, her son, is going through a rough time and I feel great compassion for him.

Many struggle with depression during the holidays.
FIGHT BACK!!!!
Pump up the vitamins
Pump up the music
Get up and get busy!

Look around and COUNT YOUR BLESSINGS
Count your blessings
Name them one by one
Count your blessings
See What God hath done
Count your blessings!
Name them one by one.

For my dear friends and my family
I name you one by one, I count myself thankful for all God has sent to me and given me.

Thank you Lord for my husband, my children, my friends, my home, my life.
I am truly blessed.
Merry Christmas everyone.
