I am of the firm belief that our existence on this tiny blue dot, engulfed by the infinite, is all we've got. And all you are is packed into that 3 pounds of stuff sandwiched between your ears. So, IMHO, I wouldn't hedge my bets on any permanent party with a reservation in your name after you check out from Tierra Madre. I've felt like quitting before and been in some deep dark places that made me wonder if life was worth putting up with the pain. But, things can change for the better. I'm a living example of that. I now embrace life and feel pretty good. Like I said, I really don't think there's any heavenly reward waiting for any of us. So, don't do anything rash.
Good luck.😃

@itchyd I too suspect that this life is “it” and after that is eternal rest. I’d like to believe otherwise but I can’t. It would be wonderful to be able to believe there’s more and also that I’d be chosen to experience it. Chosen because I having loved my neighbour well. For helping the poor and the needy. For not judging. For taking care of the splinters in my own eye. For being kind. Etc!
I have had bouts of anxiety and depression at different times in my life. When my grandmother was murdered. When my mother died suddenly from illness. When we moved country due to war. When I was dumped by my first love and took the rejection very deeply.
I’ve bounced back each time by looking to see how I can help others. It’s so easy to get tangled up in your head and to isolate yourself.
Wishing you the very best for 2025 🙏
