RE: Oppression | a little something I penned, while going through a rough period in my life

in #poetry7 years ago

Sun Tzu - 544 BC (traditional)
“If you are depressed you are living in the past.
If you are anxious you are living in the future.
If you are at peace you are living in the present.”

A beautiful quote. The Art of War is one of my favorite books of all time. Thanks for the reply, it brought a smile to my face :)

When we compare the present to the past. When we avoid foods that are good for the brain chemistry. When we don't get exercise. When we surround ourselves with social media rather than real friends who love us. It becomes a one way ticket to depression.

Thank you for the upvote and reply screenwriterml. You've hit the nail on the head. Being able to cope is the reason I got into fitness and healthy living in the first place. It is my sanctuary. I thank you for shedding light on it :)
