When I’m Depressed, My Soul Resists Earthly Presence
It sometimes seems insane that we’d incarnate here.
Your soul chose to come to Earth. Isn’t that wild? There are so many ups and downs here, it’s like a rollercoaster of trauma and emotions. Sometimes, I have to wonder why we would ever elect to be here in the first place when life seems so cruel.
Happiness can seem fleeting and pointless because it always ends. Worrying about the future does nothing, but at least when I am worrying, I still care what happens. In the past, I’ve found that when that feeling finally subsides and I start to think that there are no happy endings, I’m left with an endless abyss of hopelessness. It’s deeply sad. Why am I here? But after a period of intense grief, I did manage to find my way back to the light, and I’ll tell you how.
Ego Depression Vs. Soul Depression
There are different levels of depression. When you still have some attachment to the outcome and a sliver of hope left, the sadness is different. You still allow the outside world to determine your moods. When I’m in this mode, I still hold onto hope that things are going to turn out great, usually dependent on the actions of another person to satisfy me.
