Happiness starts in the gut

Depression is physical and I'm coming out of mine.
Having a purpose in life really helps
but without physical health,
all the purpose in the world won't matter.
Well, it won't matter for long.

We can only get by on positive thinking for a while.
If the body is broken, the mood will crash right along with it.
And when I say "mood" I don't mean happy, sad, cheerful kind of stuff.
I mean the deep, pervasive stuff.
I'm talking about our overall attunetment toward living.

I'm so tire of waking up in the morning and having my first thought be:
Dear God, Please help me!

But things are looking up.
I'm feeling better.
I'm looking better.
People are telling me how much better I look.
Strange, since I'm heavier than I was a year ago.
Still, I'm getting compliments on how I'm looking
radiant
or
rested
or
great.

I'm not feeling radiant, rested or great but I'm glad I look it.
Something I'm doing must be working.

Part of it is trying, really really trying to be grateful for my life as it is.
Part of it is having real hope for my future.
A BIG part of it is the nutrition.

Body, mind, spirit
all coming together.
Improving.
Growing.
Evolving.

I'm so tired right now.
I've worked hard today.
Time for some grass-fed beef, beet kvass and a nice organic pickle.
Good for the gut and the soul!
