Reblog – How My Loud Bipolar Whispers (and a music video)

This is one of the best posts or articles I have ever read on the subject of bipolar. It is loud and it does whisper and with a lot of hard work, you can come to a point of recovery. And this version of “The Sound of Silence” is one of my favorites!

I totally agree with everything Rebekah says about strength, courage, how it affects relationships and the importance of God in the equation.

This is definitely worth the read.

The Dash

I read of a man who stood to speak at a funeral of a friend.  He referred to the dates on the tombstone from the beginning…to the end.

He noted that first came the date of birth and spoke of the following date with tears, but said what mattered most of all was the dash between those years.

For that dash represents all the time they spent alive on earth and now only those who loved them know what that little line is worth.

For it matters not, how much we own, the cars..the house…the cash.  What matters is how we lived and loved and how we spend our dash.
