    I just share social things on Facebook with my friends. Nothing of great importance at all really. I just got my Twitter account going again, I had only been using it to direct message a friend for over a year. Now I am going to start using it again to promote my writing here. It will be interesting to see if it helps as far as things here are…[Read more]

    My favorite color is any shade of purple. I responded to your challenge on the forums and as you will see – the first color I picked was a shade of purple to fit my name. I think it has something to do with purple being the color of royalty. I grew up never feeling important and often times I still feel looked over or forgotten even as an…[Read more]

    Lola started the topic Do You Pray? in the forum Group logo of Christian ConnectionChristian Connection 8 years, 5 months ago

    The Bible talks about how the disciples cried out “Teach us to pray!”.  Do you pray on a daily basis?

    The Devil loves it when we’re too busy to pray because it means we are not giving energy towards the spiritual war that is going on daily in the world.  Prayer is putting out positive energy into the world and up to God.

    Lola wrote a new post, Depression, Treatments Are Out There 8 years, 5 months ago

    Depression is a very serious disease which impacts many people in the world today. It’s hard to get an accurate count of how many people struggle with depression as there is such stigma against mental illness […]

    • Yes, depression is a very bad thing for those who face it at any place at home or out of home but I say depression is the cause of corrupt human and mind and it is the child of lustful emotions springing from our greedy hearts like the rays of the sun.

      I think that when a person has depression, it interferes with daily life and normal functioning. It can cause pain for both the person with depression and those who care about him or her. Doctors call this condition “depressive disorder,” or “clinical depression.” It is a real illness. It is not a sign of a person’s weakness or a character flaw. You can’t “snap out of” clinical depression. Most people who experience depression need treatment to get better.

      Sadness is only a small part of depression. Some people with depression may not feel sadness at all. Depression has many other symptoms, including physical ones. If you have been experiencing any of the following signs and symptoms for at least 2 weeks, you may be suffering from depression:

      Persistent sad, anxious, or “empty” mood
      Feelings of hopelessness, pessimism
      Feelings of guilt, worthlessness, helplessness
      Loss of interest or pleasure in hobbies and activities
      Decreased energy, fatigue, being “slowed down”
      Difficulty concentrating, remembering, making decisions
      Difficulty sleeping, early-morning awakening, or oversleeping
      Appetite and/or weight changes
      Thoughts of death or suicide, suicide attempts
      Restlessness, irritability
      Persistent physical symptoms

    My given name is Amy so I’m going to use it for the colors in my name (yes, I’m American so I spell colors differently).

    A. Amethyst…I choose that color because I love the color purple and Amethyst is the most beautiful color purple I know.  It also has meaning metaphysically as a stone which is calming and meditative, and I really need…[Read more]
