Do not take life to be anything more than acting. Don’t identify yourself too much with the action.Whether you are a wife or husband, a businessman or client, don’t get too involved. Don’t lose yourself in it, for you are simply playing a role in the play. Keep outside of it, and within yourself. These are all necessary parts of life. You must go to work, it is necessary. The play is delightful if you see it as play, but it is fatal if you take it to be life. There is no reason so disrupt your life. You have to play the part that life has given you.","author":"Osho","tags":["art-of-living","bliss","depression","depression-recovery","enlightenment","happiness","life-is-a-play","loss","loss-and-pain","trust"],"id":70766,"author_id":"Osho"},{"text":"Depression is a reality with everyone.

It is the pain that is too much to cope with, too hard to deal with and never understood. It is something that you can’t escape, no matter how hard you try it ALWAYS swallows you again. It constantly follows you around, like black smoke choking you from the inside out. Like a lion clawing at your heart and mind, eating pieces of you until there is nothing left.","author":"Astrid Lee Miles","tags":["depression","depression","depression-recovery"],"id":129681,"author_id":"Astrid+Lee+Miles"}],"pagination":{"page":1,"page_size":10,"total":37,"pages":4,"next":"?page=2\u0026page_size=10"}}
