Dealing with depression, is not always expressed as being sad, gloomy and anxious. It can be happy, fearless, and cheerful attitude.
Yeah,. You never know what someone is going thru unless they told you. So be kind. Use only good word or remain silent. You will never know how a 'wow, you gain weight!' Comment can affect a lot to somebody. Try not to put some comment about physical body, beside its not important at all, and has no value worth to waste energy.
Maybe this guy you talk about his pain, his past, is not showing you his sadness. Otherwise, he tell you as if everything alright, he moved on, and he take the lesson. But really.. You never know, maybe in the middle of the talk, when there's a silent gap, he hold his tears so deep with a bright smile.
He can be a she too.

People remember little thing we take to them. As for today, I remember the feeling when baby sitting next to me in the plane was touching me, and smile. He hold my fingers with his tiny little hand. There's a warmth feeling and suddenly I missed being a mother. I change direction like the wind in the sea, I want this!
One touch and I was sure. This is what I want.
The little act of kindness from one pure human -kind has affect me a lot.
People only need to be reminded that their smallest act toward other people, also matter.
The words, the laugh, the appreciation, the gratitude, the apologies, and mostly doesn't involved money. No need to buy a huge fancy dress if one piece of chocolate snack can make you smile in the busy hours.
Minimal people are the people who appreciate value more than stuff.

I don't know about you but I do want to settle down. This is a real deal of life changing decision that we have to prepared. Scarry and challenging. But how will we know we're ready, because we'll never really ready?
What to prepare if nothing put together as a whole complete puzzle. Still scattered, undefined, confusing. How to prepare in between these uncertainty?
Its simple...
Have faith.
Have faith that everything will be worth it in the end. That you'll find happiness in so many ways, and in so many possibilities.
Keeping the anxiety inside will only lead to depression. You can lie to the world about how fine you are, but you can never lie to your eyes when the tear is falling in between laugh.
Release, let go, and have faith. Have faith that things are always get better. So you can noticed how blue the sky is and how close the clouds are.
