    Life is hard. I’m not gonna lie, it’s feeling extra hard for me right now, but there are still good things in my life. Thinking up five of those good things when I’m really feeling down can help me enough to keep going. Sometimes that’s all you need.

    My life is also pure hell atm. I have covid,3 kiddos, no money and not a soul who can help. All the state funds are closed. That's no rent, lights, soon this phone too. Don't know where I'm going to go when I can't get out of bed.

    So good to see you again ...and don't ever worry about videos. We love them but we understand that life happens.
    I agree with you about exercise being helpful. I was swimming after work, it made me feel better. 45 minutes of laps and then the reward of the hot tub!
    Well, I work in a school so my schedule slowed down and changed with the end of June. On top of that, there was only one week from the end of school to the time my youngest daughter, son in law and grand daughters, were leaving for a long vacation.
    They live with me so I am intensely feeling their absence!
    My oldest daughter, her girlfriend and my son are still around, there's one good thing, I have two dogs to care for and will be working a summer program for 26 days.
    I also have completely torn up my garden and am redesigning it(dug out four small stumps).
    I planted a hydrangea in my Great Grandma Bonnie's honor and a sunflower that my grand daughter brought home from school.
    All in all, I am fine , but I fight the depression and the frustration and the tears.
    You are right though, just keep going , even if it's a little at a time.
    I believe as you say, hate knows it will ultimately lose so it's really kicking in...but it will eventually lose hold and dwindle away.
    Thank you so much for caring and taking time to share real life! We will indeed, get better together!

    Thank you for your honesty Melissa. I just got out of the train one station too early to take a walk home. Haven't been able to do that for a while because of a heat wave going across Europe. Today the weather is perfect and the linden trees smell just divinely. Sending you lots of love.

    Everyone has problems. And I don't like saying everything will be okay, not everything will be okay. Even with what has happened to the world, and the US. We still keep going. Lots of us have a negative mindset. Me as well. But also knowing there are good people in the world. That we are lucky for what we do have. And all the good things for us. The past few years of my life haven't been the best but I do try to be positive and I'm grateful for everything I have. And I'm here for you and I hope your mom gets better!! ❤❤❤❤

    I have to say I do understand what you're going through I'm going through my own mental struggles I finally seeks out help and medication last month I sat in my doctor's office and I reveal to my doctor that I think about killing myself often and just ending everything but now that I'm going and talking to professionals and taking my medication I feel much better I'm starting to recognize me again so I understand what you're talking about mental health thank you so much for being real with us you really love

    I know things get tough. It’s a struggle to keep moving forward everyday. I try to measure my progress by ANY movement. An inch in the positive is progress. It may not be where I want to be, but it’s still progress. I may not check everything off my list, but I have put checks on the list. I’m not inconveniencing anyone but myself, so I still call the win. Not that I’m lowering my expectations, I’m just trying to quit bullying myself. We need to support each other, try to make others lives better, and count the inches. I know what I do counts for someone. The US is messed up right now, but I try to trust the process and remember Art has an ugly stage. It’s only a matter of time before common sense and maturity prevails. My family helps. I wish I could do more. As long as I keep trying, keep gaining inches, it’s going to get better.

    One of my favorite poems by Emily Dickerson:
    I’m Nobody! Who are you?
    Are you - Nobody - too?
    Then there’s a pair of us!
    Don’t tell! they’d advertise - you know!
    How dreary - to be - Somebody!
    How public - like a Frog -
    To tell one’s name - the livelong June -
    To an admiring Bog!
    Also, I do agree that we are experiencing a phase of the death throes of hate. But things may very well get a lot worse before we begin to see some light. And who knows for how long??

    You are not a nobody. You might just not be a heavy hitter. You are one of the channels I look forward to. I think it is because you are one of the people that most of us can relate to and would like to think we would be friends irl if we really knew each other. You talk to us and seem to post what we need to hear when we need to at the time.

    My absolute number one book for mental health is Overcoming Depression by Dimitri and Laura Papolous. It's focused on the depressive spectrum, and is pretty dense with the medical jargon, but so much of the advice and information can be applied to other mental issues!

    It's great to see you again Melissa! You have blessed so many of us, and your impact on some people's lives is truly undeniable.. you're nothing close to a nobody, in fact, I don't consider anyone a nobody anyway. I really loved the way you showcased your point of view and your opinion. I'm so glad I watched this video right now because I feel like I very much needed this tbh.
    Fun fact, I was also drinking tea while watching you and it was at the perfect temperature too!

    Hey I just wanted to jump in and say that I watch your videos and you are not a nobody. I see you smiling and doing what you love, and you seem like a very sweet wise person with a backbone. We may not have the same belief systems (im a christian conservative republican. I haven'tbeen followingGod like should and want to get back to not only doing better for me but for God. Its really hard. no one is perfect.) or thought processes, but I believe that you are here for a reason and you really helped me with your video just now. I really appreciate your videos and sharing something that we both love. Dolls. Lol I have quite a few. Still haven't grown up. Lol 😆 But it's fun to be young at heart. All the negativity gets to me alot. I just want everyone to get along and stop hating each other. At the end of the day we are all humans and we need to stop dehumanizing people. I can be someone who doesn't really like people driving in traffic, and also hearing stuff on the news but when I hear someone's story it helps me put a face to them and not just think about them like an adversary. I want to be better and show people God's love and really just get reacquainted with Him. You loved. You are important. You are seen. ❤️

    Hi, Your not a nobody everybody is a somebody to someone. I just let thing happen to me and let it go. And move on. Once I have got a handle on it. As long as you make yourself happy. That's what matters. Its been said loads of people are hooked on there smart phone. And can't do without it. Here is a thought I would rather have my life now. As the alternative is to die. I have answered your points in the Video, and that is why its messed up. Sorry. Stay safe to you and all your loved ones. OH Thank you for this video. I love this channel now CZcams is sending me it. God bless you.❤
