Sadness

I spent a lot of today fighting with an overwhelming... I don't know, sadness, I suppose.  It's a feeling I get sometimes that I honestly imagine being exactly what clinical depression feels like--I feel something that's honestly deeper than sadness (or maybe I just have a trite idea of what 'sadness' is because I've never experienced anything truly tragic), for no particular reason.  It's the sort of feeling that I can tell would overwhelm me if I let it; but I always turn to God and power through.  So maybe the comparison to depression was unfair; true depression isn't something you can just power through, and it doesn't just go away.
