My tears are not unshed 1/5/2007 6:03:35 PM
I'm sad tonight...tears welling behind my eyes while I try to fight the inevitable. I know its coming and there is so little I can do to avoid it...
Depression is a horrible thing, even when it is shades of gray rather than depths of black despair. Tears are meant to be shed and trying to hold them back creates a dam that is worse than the crying. Nothing has happened to cause this spiral, a normal day at work, nothing unusual with the family. My grandson is being initiated into his fraternity in Rolla. No cause for pain there, the hazing isn't even a dreaded thing these days. My granddaughter is at a movie with a friend. I loved movies when I was her age too. My brother let me tag along every Sunday afternoon to whatever horror movie happened to be showing and he put up with my interminable questions. Seems so long ago. Maybe that is part of the problem...the way time seems to be moving too quickly. Years used to be made up of twelve months, they now fly by in minutes. That doesn't seem right though, I've never been afraid of age, it comes with too many blessings. I look in the mirror and I try to mourn for that twenty five year old that used to look back at me, but she was such a dingy twit, it's hard to miss her. One of the tears is running down my cheek now, maybe a good crying jag and it will all be over. Tomorrow I'll wake up smiling, take my mom to the beauty parlor, have lunch and read a good book...how can a day like that be depressing. Maybe...we'll just have to see.
