DON'T STOP BELIEVING

Our loved one is coming home today from an extended time in a psychiatric ward.

We have no idea what to expect, but we hope for the best.

People with OCD, schizophrenia, mood disorders, and depression often feel like

prisoners of their own minds. They feel powerless.

Perhaps this little story will help.

***

Victor Frankl had every reason to stop believing.

A prisoner in a Nazi prison camp;

Victor watched as every prisoner came to terms

with losing all and facing death daily.

Victor noticed to his utter amazement that some

prisoners shared their meager rations with others.

No guard could stop this act of kindness.

No force could stop their utter

sacrifice.

The were not powerless.
***

For Victor, he realized at that moment

that no matter how much we have lost

we have one thing inside of us that will always

be safe from any evil force...

that is our decision to be a light

in the face of darkness.

There's much more...but for now

DON'T STOP BELIEVING!

***

Today's my 100th post and the song is exactly what

we need.

A fun version of

'Don't Stop Believing' by Vance Perry
