Today I am guest posting at my dear friend Misha’s new blog, The Offense of Joy. I met Misha online several years ago, and she is a beautiful kindred spirit. She is artistic and passionate, and I’m thrilled that she is writing (publically) again!
My favorite two posts so far are Joy Is A Gift (What’s So Offensive About Joy? – Part One Of Six) and The Ring. Please go read Misha’s words. I hope they move you. [Leave a comment and let Misha know I sent you!]
You are also invited to read my post, A Surprise Party.

Head on over to read the rest (and say hello while you’re there!).
[ETA: There have been some questions about my depression story. Feel free to ask questions in the comments or email me, but I also shared some of the story here and here.]
