Good morning God and everyone.  With the recent death of Robin Williams, and so many discussions around depression and suicide, it has made me think about where I am and what I have been experiencing in my life this past year.  As I have written before, I have in the past been depressed and suicidal.  In this past year I have gone through many of the same situations (and some worse) that would have dragged me deep into the depths of my depression, and close to those thoughts of wanting to “leave”.  I am also aware of dealing with and writing about a lot of sadness and pain, and even wonder if you all are tired of reading about it.  But as I write this, I’m very clear that all of it is perfect and some very significant things have changed.

These Journals with God have helped me to understand that I am not alone.  And the one that I am not alone with loves me more than anything I have ever experienced on the earth plane.  I feel safe, comforted, and accepted – even in my sadness.  And from here, I feel like my true (authentic) self.  From here I also easily and readily feel happiness, anger, joy, grief, peace, ecstasy, love, and compassion – and every other emotion without fear of it taking me down, or judgement that I shouldn’t feel it.

It is from this place that I decided to stop drinking alcohol (depression in a bottle) in November, and not have one thought of wanting to drink since.  It is from this place that I cleaned up my diet, dropped weight, and feel physically better than I have in years.  And it is from this place that I am letting go of, or not resisting the leaving of, what is no longer working for or supporting me in who I truly am.

I am so grateful for this experience of directly hearing the words of God, writing them down, and feeling immense love flowing through me.  I am grateful that you are all sharing this with me and hope that you too are inspired by this, and are having your own experience communicating and communing directly with the Divine in your own life.

My prayer is that everyone who is feeling depressed, lost, discouraged, or hopeless can discover the light and love that is alive within them.  But, I also have to trust that everyone has their path and so I must trust that everyone is doing what they are called to do and learn, and that I need to accept it, no matter what.

Thank you again for joining me on this journey.  In just a week, I will have written for a year.  Much has happened.  And for all of it, I am grateful.

Love,

Diane
