When
God give us some disadvantages, Hes also gives us some advantages. For example,
many gays or lesbians are extremely talented artists. So if you think you have
some disadvantages, try to find out what advantages God has given you to balance
your life. God does give. Don't dwell on your disadvantages and dampen your
spirit. Instead go into your advantages, go into your talents, go into the positive
side of life that God granted you, and uplift yourself.
Whenever you feel very depressed and really cannot bear it anymore, you have
to treat yourself good. Go into the best coffee shop that you've always liked
but always feared to spend money, buy the suit that you've always wanted but
you thought was too expensive. Treat yourself nicely at that time because you
need it. Just like someone else in time of need -- you have to comfort him,
give him the best, give him the best support and love, and spoil him. You have
to spoil yourself, give yourself the best support when you need it most -- like
when you're depressed, when you feel you really cannot live anymore, cannot
go on anymore. At that time you must treat yourself nicely. If you can afford
anything, afford it. You can earn money later again, you can earn your time
again, but you have to put yourself together first. You have to stand up first.
I don't say you go out and
do shopping every day and spend all the money on the big coffee shop, on the
best clothes. But, when you are the most depressed and you can't go on anymore
with life, then you cannot afford to economize anymore. You have to spoil yourself,
love yourself the most, then you pick up very fast. Yeah, go out and talk to
people, treat yourself like a queen, spend money, whatever, to make yourself
feel good. At that time only, not every day, if you can afford it. And if you
cannot spend a lot of money, then go to somewhere that is not a lot of money
but you can also find something that you like. It's not always necessary to
go to expensive places to find the things you like. Just some new clothes, some
new hairstyle, new perm, everything would make you feel different right away.
New makeup. These are not expensive. Same with the men. But sometimes because
we get into the habit, like always wearing dark clothes, always wearing a turtleneck,
then depressed, just stay there, don't move, don't change. Try something new
to take your mind off the depression, that's already something. If normally
you always wear black, brown and blue then try white, cream, lighter colors,
or pink. Just boost yourself up.
