Day 283: 10-10-10

'And it takes some old to make you young
It takes some cold to know the sun
It takes the one to have the other'
I love that song :)

Another pjama day today. I'm honestly completely physically and mentally exhausted. I'm not happy with my art for this week but don't have the energy to do very much about it. I spent hours looking for a book I need earlier which I can't find and it's driving me crazy.

I was feeling utterly crap earlier. Was debating going to bed at about 4pm :') My head really doesn't like me right now :P I blogged a bit about what I was feeling...but it was more descriptive about stuff that I think about every day, anyway, loads of people have liked it or reblogged it, so I guess that's made me feel a little less alone :) ...there was a random story for you xD

...Apparently it's world mental health day today. We need to break the silence!!!!! There's so much stigma surrounding mental health, it's horrible, why is a mental illness any less of an illness then a cancer? Why is it so much harder for people to accept it? In the course of a year, 1 in 4 people will suffer from mental health issues. That means that there is a very, very high chance that someone you know is suffering right now, and it will probably be the person who you least expect. We need to break down these walls and start giving people hope.

Really don't want to go to school tomorrow =/

I'm going to hopefully get an early night tonight...

Great photo...and I agree with your comments on breaking the silence. People are people...and we need to just accept them for who they are. I hope that you feel better tomorrow. Stay confident and positive!

What a beautiful image, so sunny, but filled with fall's change! The bits of spider web were just the touch needed to elevate this above anothers'! I love the way you write and share your passion. I, too, saw Andie's very soul-bearing photo and topic, and I'm so supportive of anyone speaking up for this cause! Like you said, we don't have to look far to see someone dealing with a mental disorder, and its a pity anyone should have to suffer in silence!
