When you're feeling down and depressed its a reminder to start taking steps towards becoming the awesome person you know you can be. We all get depressed, especially the weirdos, because the weirdos have big beautiful hearts and on todays show I have Ed Mylett interviewing Erwin McManus and Erwin describes depression in such a wonderful way that I felt obligated to share it with you.

Its the most wonderful time of the year.  Baby its weird outside, but you can still bring joy to everyone.  You are a miracle, so make a miracle happen, be someone's miracle :)

You and only you will determine the course of your life. Surround yourself with good people, avoid the drama and get yourself into power so you can change you and then the world you want to fix

We try and suppress our weird, unpleasant emotions.  Feelings can be uncomfortable.  The unpleasant feelings, emotions, are normal.  They are like clouds, they come and they go.  Your weird feelings are temporary, don't run away, stay in the moment, embrace it and face it.  They will pass and you will conquer.    

The pirates of the past escaped from the laws and regulation, they were rebels against authority, they were weirdos who made their own rules in search of treasure.  What treasure(s) are you searching for??

Weird is a badge of honour rather than a slur.  Weird can be a persons greatest strength.

Labor Day weekend is the unofficial end of summer and an unofficial time for new beginnings.  Whats your new beginning???
