Don't worry, Mt. Pleasantism. Depression is common in this joyous season in which we worship the Prince of Peace (a.k.a. Nazarenian Jesus) and his mind-blowing conception, gestation and ultimate manger birth (there was NO room at the Inn). It dawns on many amongst our brethren, and even some women sometimes, just how absurd it is conducting our affairs and making life decisions based on infantile, self-deluded superstitions. It is this "cognitive dissonance" that creates depression, bipolarismness, flagellation, and alcohol abuse. So what you are going through is like totally normal.
So kind of you, mr. sirmoonie. I'll take your kind words as a nice virtual gift. It's nice to know that this feeling isn't a fragment of my imagination, and that isn't a sole case.
I used to love cold seassons; maybe I'm just growing old, or I'm just cranky. Whatever. It happens to everyone. I'll drink a little more, and see, like the Stones sang: "what happens." Wish me luck; you know I wish the best to you and to all the people who belong in this place.
