VEILS OF MELANCHOLY

We hide so much from the world.  Sometimes we just want to disappear.  And people will let us.   We don't speak up for ourselves.  We don't go places.  We sit quietly in a meeting or in the classroom. 

But then what happens?  Our self-worth begins to disappear as well.  Our energy sags.  We start that horrible self-hate talk.  Things just get worse from there.  I know how hard it is to pull yourself out of that black hole.  But you are valued.  You are worth it.  People don't hate you.  They are just too worried about themselves to notice you hiding.  Do you feel their pain?  Come out from the veil and greet the world.  We are here for you.
