Depression and suicide aren't just a worldwide epidemic, they also hit home. With over 350 million people suffering from depression and an estimated one million Americans attempting suicide each year, most of us have been affected by this terrible plague - or perhaps struggle with it ourselves. How can we help those who feel they have no hope? In this moving fictional account, a caring bystander tries to convince a suicidal young man that his life has value and he has much to live for. Through their conversation, you will discover why we all have great worth, everyone has a reason.

It is a strange paradox that many of the clearest, most comforting life lessons are learned while we are at our lowest.

The therapist informed me that I was like an anorexic in that an anorexic doesn’t recognize hunger and has to be told when to eat. I didn’t recognize disrespect and had to be clued in to when it was going on in a form too subtle for me to recognize or too bold for me to believe it was what it was. After experiencing one molestation and two sexual assaults in my youth, I went on to enter into three consecutive abusive relationships as an adult. And then...I had a nervous breakdown.

I am not claiming my illness has been cured for it would seem that once one’s nervous system is damaged there is always a slight chance of a relapse, but at least these days I rarely get pulled into that fearful darkness and when I do usually it only lasts a few minutes, whereas in the past sometimes my depression would haunt me for months before I was able to struggle back to the surface of life. Having successfully used these methods it is my hope that others dealing with the ravages of depression, physical pain, emotional torment and/or chronic illness might also gain some benefit.

There are lone hearth-fires today, so many! And those who sit beside them, with the empty chair, cannot restrain the tears that will come. Yes, here's the Bible close by. But there's a heavy mood on that affects one's eyes so. One sits alone so much. There is some One unseen, just here, within reach. But somehow we don't realize His presence; it does not seem real. If we would quietly put a foot on the next step up, and then rise up to that foot, we can recognize His presence: it is real. Realizing is blessed, but... rare. It belongs to the mood; to the feelings. It is dependent on weather ...
