Essay: "Overcoming Depression"

by James Rowley
I've never met a person, I don't care what his condition, in whom I could not see possibilities.

I don't care how much a man may consider himself a failure. I believe in him, for he can change the thing that is wrong in his life anytime he is ready and prepared to do it. Whenever he develops the desire, he can take away from his life the thing that is defeating it. The capacity for reformation and change lies within.

"The power of words inspires the power for change."

We empower ourselves when we follow the road to freedom instead of getting caught in the revolving door of our past. Listening to people who believe in our abilities helps us find the power within ourselves to do better. Modeling positive people helps us create good choices and decisions, and changes negative consequences into positive outcomes.
