What do you do when you're feeling sad?
May 28th 2008 10:07
A movie can make me feel sad, when I see a child hurt or crying I feel sad, when I hear of someone in my family having difficulties I feel sad but sometimes that can make me feel angry too, depending on what is happening.
I feel sad when my dad calls me different, I know it's true, but it still hurts, I know I should talk about that with him but that would make him feel hurt as he loves us all so much, me included, so I just let it roll over my head.
I feel sad when Tinkerbelle suddenly decides she does not want anything to do with me, you know how cats are. But she comes around in her own time and at her own pace so I just forgive her. We love each other so much.
I feel sad when Andrew goes off to his wretched farm and I know if we get married I'll be something of a farm widow a bit like some are a "golf" widow, especially when I give up work.
But mostly I'm happy and quite contented with my lot in life, after all I do have a lot to be appreciative of.
Sometimes I do feel lonely and that makes me sad, but it doesn't last for long as I keep so busy.
But what are the things that make YOU feel sad, does it happen often, and what do you do to come out of it or do you simply wait for it to pass.
For some it never passes and these are the truly depressed, that must be an awful way to be.
I wonder if I'll always feel as I do now, I know when I get married things will change a lot, and sometimes I worry about that, but we can't see into the future or CAN WE?
So, what is it that you do when you're feeling sad?

Louie, you are so lucky to be able to cry, crying does not come easily to everyone, including me. I wish it did but maybe I just don't have much to cry about.
Thank you both, darlings that you are, for your visits.

Thank you (once more) for visiting my blog, for if not, I would not have discovered your blog! I like the questions you pose because i get to talk about me!...yes, that does sound egocentric....but i'll make my comments enjoyable to read ok?
The only thing that is guranteed to uplift a sad mood for me is music. Whether it be a happy song, or a dance song or a rock song...just anything that is loud and/or energetic lets me temporarily leave my sadness aside. And then sometimes i get so distracted by my music i forget my sadness.
Of course, there are other factors at play. Maybe i wasn't really all that sad in the first place. Maybe i just have a short attention span!
