One of my very favorite bloggers is Jenny Lawson aka The
Bloggess (http://thebloggess.com). She is
wickedly funny and is completely off-beat and original. She is also completely open about her
struggles with depression and anxiety.
When she isn’t making me laugh she is bringing me to tears. One minute she is bawdy and outrageous, and
the next she is completely vulnerable and laying her soul bare.
Today she re-tweeted a link from one of her followers. The link was to a letter penned by the British
actor Stephen Fry to a young woman with depression. His words were so genuine and
comforting. It was one of the most
moving things I have ever read. If you
suffer from depression, please read it.
If someone you love suffers, it will give you some of the best words of
comfort you will ever be able to share.
The link is http://www.lettersofnote.com/2009/10/it-will-be-sunny-one-day.html.
If you have never checked out The Bloggess, I encourage you
to get yourself to her site right away. Some
days her words will move you. Some days
she will make you shriek with laughter.
But she will never, ever bore you.
