Depths

This afternoon has been one of highs and lows. At lunch I found myself isolated and feeling emotionally overwhelmed. My conversation with Jillian did little to alter my depression, but instead found me misinterpreting her words and using them to spiral ever downward. I felt, for a few moments, what a person in absolute despair experiences, and the hoplessness it brought almost made me faint. I have recovered a bit since then, after taking shelter in my office for a few hours, practicing some mindless activity and reading a short passage from the Gospel of Matthew. I think now, that with a good cup of coffee, I will be able to open my door again and re-enter what feels like the land of the living.
