Some Weekend Reading

Came across some great articles on the Internet that might be of interest to anyone going through a divorce, depression, loss, etc that can help you get through a difficult weekend...

10 Inspiring Quotes for a Depressed Heart
One of my favs...
"A pearl is a beautiful thing that is produced by an injured life. It is the tear [that results] from the injury of the oyster. The treasure of our being in this world is also produced by an injured life. If we had not been wounded, if we had not been injured, then we will not produce the pearl."

Stephan Hoeller

How to Let Go of Past Loves
Snippet - Your brain believes your body, sort of a reverse of the placebo affect. You begin to feel free of the past when you act free of the past! Don’t talk about the old relationship, don’t ritualize it, don’t note anniversaries, or send mental messages. Your brain will notice how healthy you are and deepen those neural networks until they become routine
 
Spiritual Divorce - Seven spiritual laws to help you see divorce as a gain rather than a loss.

I know from experience that weekends can be some of the loneliest times - at least during the weekdays you have work, etc to keep you busy.  Get to the library on Friday afternoon or on Saturday morning and pick up something to have on hand should the weekend loneliness start to rear its ugly head.
