I fully understand John, and his search. taking the medications isnt a cure, in fact its the opposite it drives you away from your very nature. Balance is a calm state, but balance doesn't create change which is the core of life, and life isn't about living always in joy, its embracing all aspects of life which makes us human. Its just some of us dip down a bit deeper. I know John very well as his story could have easily been mine. And if others are confused why he didnt fully reach back out in the end, Well the truth is he did reach back out, he embraced and accepted his very own nature most especially at the end. I dont expect others who don't experience this to understand, but its the truth. Thanks Donna great post. In the dancing of living with the angels of devils of our very own nature:

Balance is a calm state, but balance doesn’t create change which is the core of life, and life isn’t about living always in joy, its embracing all aspects of life which makes us human. Its just some of us dip down a bit deeper.

And if others are confused why he didnt fully reach back out in the end, Well the truth is he did reach back out, he embraced and accepted his very own nature most especially at the end.

Thanks Donna great post.
