African American Quote of the Week.....

Depression and grief are hatred turned on the self. 
William Grier, 1926-
Physician

Okay everybody! When I read that statement, I had a hard time applying that mentality to every situation. For instance, if I am broke, and have no gas money; well, am I mad at myself, or at the situation?  For me personally, it would depend on how I became broke. If I spent my last $10.00 on donuts and eyeshadow, then yes, I am very mad at myself for spending so unwisely. However, if I am broke because I have no job and am going through a divorce....well, not so sure I am going to be mad at myself,; I am more likely to be very angry at the situation.

But hey, that's just my view.....Give me yours!
