Despair compresses you into a small space,
and depression is literally a hollow in the ground.
To dig deeper into the self, to go underground,
is sometimes necessary, but so is the other route of
getting out of yourself, into the larger world, into the
openness in which you need not clutch your story
and your troubles so tightly to your chest.
Sometimes the way back into the heart of the
question begins by going outward and beyond.
~ Rebecca Solnit
