Hello there. General Depression. Corny Star Wars reference aside, welcome back. Gotta say, didn't really want cha back, but here you are...  Bags and all. Jeeze, what year are those bags from anyway? I feel like you should have let those go, awhile ago. Okay, so you're not going away. At least not anytime soon. It's just, when you're here it's hard to find topics of conversation. The silence isn't comforting, but it persists. I feel like conversations flowed like rivers until you became the dam that stoped the flow. Now the once prospering ecosystem, is sick and unbalanced. That ecosystem I call my mind is crying out to the operators to open the gates; let the river flow. But I sit on shores with waves in the sand that say 'movement once happened here.' I feel the dust bowl coming all the signs are here, I've seen this all before. I have to plant trees now before everything blows away.
