Joy or no joy
A dark and rainy November day
- Oh, wait, that's not it
We're in early December
A clash of Seasons
The Dying hanging on
Not wanting to hear
The ever-positive cheerleaders
Practicing for the upcoming joys
Of Christmas

I hear that more people get more depressed around the holidays, whether it's a mental health issue or not, I think it's the passage of time and the carols are a reminder of me getting older.
Thought provoking.

People may get more depressed around that time of year perhaps because it is ''joy in a can''. You are a consumer in a consumer society but if you do not have the $$$$ to consume, you are out. Also it is a time for families.........so if you are single, you are left out. Certainly not a joyous time for all. PS: another sign that times are really hard: food banks around here are emptier than ever, so the provincial government gave them 60 million$$$ from their emergency funds. Regards, Robert.
