5-22-18 // 10:34 am if I had an orchard, I'd work till I'm sore NP: Fleet Foxes - "Helplessness Blues" It was fantastic finally seeing them live at the Peabody last week. Ever since I was kid, since I was old enough to remember things, which was a pretty early age, I've had days where I open my eyes and think to myself "I feel sad today". There might be a reason. Often there isn't one. Wake up blue. Later in life I'd come to recognize this as a manifestation of depression, of the mood disorders I've been battling my whole life. With each passing year I get better at navigating them - mitigating the worst and harnessing some of it to my advantage. Doesn't mean that feeling goes away. 38 years old and it still feels like little pangs of mysterious loss.
