The Wall. Beware of Winter Blues and Winter Weather in Summer
Having spent this past weekend in Boston, where summer doesn’t seem to have broken yet, many folks were complaining. Sometimes, mood is set by what is going on (or not) in our lives. Other times, the weather doesn’t help. We can hit a wall. Be conscious of and sensitive to others’ states. You don’t always know how someone else might really be feeling. Small kindnesses can help in big ways. (Small kindnesses include: a smile, a phone call, a coffee, an errand, being reliable, keeping a plan.)
THE WALL
No it’s not a place on Facebook
It’s real and raw
When the body and mind have had enough
When the going gets tough
When everything feels rough
When bed is the only place to be
Can’t move
Can’t think
Can’t anything
Some know that place better than others
Not a place that you go by choice
Or for attention
Not something that’s discussed or planned
If you’ve not been there
Harder to understand
