Depression is like a low current. Your soul is meant to be on fire and full incandescence. What depression
does is, damage your connection to the transformer which is what stabilises and keeps you happy, and
then leave you suffering with just enough light that dwindles by day. That’s the enemy’s plan – he doesn’t
need to kill you – he just needs to weaken your soul and turn you to a mere body.
What’s our natural response to Kryptonite or anything that can possibly weaken or destroy us? We run
and avoid it with all seriousness. That’s the exact same treatment depression deserves with in fact more
seriousness and resolution. That’s what I hope you will resolve to after reading this book – fight depres-
sion and fight for your joy.
