Watched Silver Linings Playbook last night. The way it approached mental illness was interesting & different. It was very honest, real & raw, and I can see why its been getting nominations. Also this week, Hockey Talks was launched by the seven Canadian hockey teams. The month-long initiative stresses awareness, openness, and acceptance of mental illness: "...it's OK to talk about mental illness, its OK to ask questions and, most important, it's OK to get help."
There are so many "not-pretty" things in the world that people don't want to acknowledge or talk about. And it's sad, and it's harsh, but it's the world we live in. This past week has brought up some thoughts & feelings that have been a bit difficult & painful - I sometimes sure wish I just knew.
