I can use it to serve someone elses need by talking, writing and filming it to make a difference Why………becasue it works, becasue if helps, because it makes us see that when we are hurting so bad and we reach out to help someone…..
What is this all about you might say? Test – One idea of a test is to test the waters – a decision – a challenge – our conscience or perhaps how far we can go before we choose to stop or take a different path. Tackle – How do we face our consequences – reflection on what is more important? – to test out our capabilities? – to beat the test and don’t take the blame for the situation? – how do we know how to deal with it? – where should we sit…..

When we do things we tend to think of ourselves, number one! But if we changed our thinking and work more as a team, how much more proactive would we be in our society. At least it would paint a picture as a friendly existence with people wanting to help each other. To help each other reminds me of the biblical quote “the fruit of the vine and work of human hands”. Lending a helping hand is like…..
THE TEST OF TIME… When we experience hardships in life, the pressures can cause many of us to become sick with depression and anxiety. It is at these times when we often struggle to get better on our own. But in times of despair like myself admitted into a hospital 30 years ago, it was in those times when my life changed for the better. The doctors were wise enough to know how to treat me and I got…..
The New Testament Mathew 7:5 – “first take the log out of your eye and then you will see clearly to take the speck out of your brother’s eye”. I am a big believer in what you learn is what you live. As parents and mentors we all rate ourselves highly when it comes to sharing our worldly advice and providing guidance to the young people in our lives. For this we then think it is fair to…..
Speaking as an advocate for mental illness I get to talk about my story. Once I have opened up to my experiences I find that many people become willing to share their stories so also get to listen to some amazing people.

Recently I was amazed when I was spoken to by someone who was listening to my story only…..
When I put pen to paper it was my way of finding a release within to express my thoughts during the most traumatic time of my life. My diary was like having a friend that I could go back to: to read the pages of days gone by and to reflect on how I felt and why I wrote what I had written. I could escape into my own world and treated my diary as if it was my own…..
Mental illness does not discriminate, but the key to recovery is the same – we must open up the channels of trust and communication. This was no more evident than with the recent tragic death of American actor and comedian Robin Williams.
