Tip of the Day
The distorted thinking of depression masks clear thinking. You feel paralyzed, unable to make a decision or pick a direction to go. It makes it hard to move forward.
As the riots in Los Angeles in 1992 were winding down, a reporter asked the actor and L.A. resident Edward James Olmos what people could do to fix things, what they could do now. He replied quite profoundly: “Pick up a broom.”
“Sweep the floor” is a classic dictum across many spiritual and religious teachings, both eastern and western. It means do the task in front of you.
So, pick up a broom. Take a positive step in some direction; it doesn't really matter what direction. Do something. Pick up a broom.
Wax on, wax off.
