Spiritual Vomit

Its been a while since ive been on DA. I guess its because ive been so busy. But right now, im just going to write whats on my mind. Or as my english teacher would say, "soul vomit". Haha.. Anyway, I recently became one of Jehovah's Witnesses and it has given me so much purpose and meaning to my life. Im finally taken action to fight against the depression. But sometimes when i get down, all i have to remember is that im not alone. Its okay. Everything will eventually be okay Like a chinese proverb says "this too shall pass". And it really does. The good and bad news is that nothing lasts. What is is that jolts people from their day to day routine? What is it about humans that makes us want to help each other? Where does that sympathy and compassion come from??
