Time out.

I am coming to the end of a particularly bad period of depression during my

Bipolar disorder. I hate mentioning it but somehow I need to justify my lack of

activity almost to the point of alleviating a feeling of guilt.

I know this is silly, nobody knows me from a bar of soap ( old English

expression ), and therefore care even less.

But this has come at a particulary bad time; just getting started with Wealthy Affiliate

and getting my legs under the table ( another one ).

The missus, who is also my carer, bless her, found a list of quotes the other day and

knowing my predicament and thinking they would inspire in my hour of need gave them to me. I'm

going to quote two of them as I think they may at some time reflect the feelings of other

students; they have certainly encouraged me in producing this blog ( is it a

blog?)

“WHATEVER you do, always give it a good go.

Don't be afraid of failure and disappointment.

If you fall flat on your face, then get straight back up.

You'll always regret not trying. Disappointment is temporary,

regret is for ever.”

“NEVER, ever, ever, ever give up. Keep on punching no matter

what you're up against. You're only defeated if you give up,

so don't give up.”

Don't know where they came from, so no referencing is available. The person who wrote these sounds like a great human being who would be only too pleased to see them quoted.
