Feeling Down During Winter and Holiday? 

Feeling down during winter and the holiday

None of us who actually know, are strangers to these 2 what people like me, call “Old Man Winter”  Wintertime and the holiday, especially if you reside in Michigan, tends to not only cut, bites too! If you’re from, or you’ve visited during this time, you are one who knows. It had crossed my mind, and was thinking about doing a post about it since Spirit too plays a significant part, so here it is.

Allow me, to ask the question: “Are you one who’s Feeling down during winter and holidays?” I bet those of you who are, will be able to relate as well as appreciate this post. Along with my thoughts for awareness if it happens to somehow reach you. Trust and know, the artist 4 the people ZoORillah Midwest feels ya.

The thing about it, it’s not even a question to why anymore is it? We all know that, it’s a season thing, and these two heavy hitters are always in rotation around this time. And when this time does come around, and these two are involved. You for sure are going to feel the real blow of both.

When wintertime pops up, it’s real and ain’t nothing to play with. The same goes for the holiday season, there’s joy. But then, there’s also for some, thoughts, feelings, emotions and pain that aren’t so joyful. The ones who knows it well, are able to speak on it. In a way that shows to be, so much deeper.

Feeling Down During Winter Is A Deep Moment

A much deeper moment it is, and can be. Especially for those like me, who going through what I’m going through. That feeling of down, deprived and trying to deal with these two situations that oneself is facing. Ones that can be ignored, but yet the problem(s) shall still remain until fixed. I even found a video done 5 years ago around this time. Where there was a major situation, one where MANY MANY were feeling and facing what? The Covid19 Crisis.

Yep, something that had so many people going through it then, and what could one really do about it? You think this didn’t effect ya guy mentally and physically along with others? And guess what, it all went down around this time. So this video may have been needed for me, to find to add to this post. And that’s where the whole 3 things to know comes into all of this and just may be meant.

“Knowing is to learn, and learning is to know.” ~Adam the Great X

You can read and take what I’m saying  as something of value, worth, enlightening and for awareness or you don’t. Matters to a degree, but then doesn’t really matter anymore to me. Overall, it’s really just my thoughts about something I’ve been found to be important to me, and share. You can thank big ZoORillah later.

3 Things to Know

1, Mood. Don’t get it twisted, wintertime for me, is actually a necessary time for balancing purposes. A time of bright and calmness, but also cold and darkness. Both good and bad, and if you know me, you know that regardless to how cold, or what the case may be. Even during some blizzard type, snowstorms, I tend to find self out in it, and somehow connecting.

Maybe because I’m a winter baby? Maybe, But I do be out even when I probably shouldn’t be. But for me, it helps with my mood, and Spiritually. If you didn’t or don’t know, mood and Spirit BOTH play a BIG part in all of this.

I think you’ve heard of a such a thing as mood swing right? And with mood swing follows what? If you didn’t guess it: “Issues with mental health.” Both positive and disruptive are a part of mood, and it can wear and tear on you.

Possible decline are faced, involving some very important things needed, but have less of. Less Sun, drastic changes when it comes to one’s ability to move due to weather like heavily snowed in and cold. Less active, unless you’re one of those who are trapped in the smartphone/online social matrix. Yep, that’s what I called it. More time inside, which leads to what? You guessed it: “Smartphone/Online Matrix,” less more meaningful communication. And last, but not least, (Holiday Stress).

The Other Two

2. Spiritual Chaos. So is there such a thing? Oh, I just made that shhhhh….. up huh? As I thought about the two, yep, there is such a thing; and something that I always tend to see in a sense. Be it through with self and or people mentally, and physically.

It seems like every time this time and holiday comes around. Some of these mafas act like they just loose all senses G-d has given. So that, combined with how super cold, ICY, slippery and dangerous it be. Can U Imagine being one of them?

Or, somehow getting caught up in their mental web of madness. And if you’re now thinking about what I’ve typed. You can see how some of the above alone, can cause unwanted feelings only adding to whatever you might already be facing at the time.

Yep, that’s me! All day, everyday and no matter how much I DON’T WANT TO, I can’t help but to. Why? Because of how I see things, and feel be it present or past. Feeling down during winter and this time makes it no better, and when people say and do things; that in itself gives you reason. To feel less than more connected, and more than less separated.

3. It’s Spiritual Know The Difference. As I always say, knowing the difference makes it. The difference in how people treat you, and me personally I do NOT like nor enjoy that feeling of uneasiness and unnecessary noise. And during this time of the season, it tends to be a bit worse, because Spiritually maybe you just be feeling shhhhh…. At least I do, and I’m pretty sure that there’s quite a few others who may well feel the same while feeling down during winter and holiday.

Why It Should Matter

What I’m sharing should matter, but to some it doesn’t. This is for those people, the ones who can feel what’s real. The one’s who find themselves trapped and caught up in the feeling down during winter and holiday. Did you know that, it leads up to one experiencing possible brain fog?

You might be one who might want and need to know that, someone like me, knows and cares enough to touch on, and deliver. A rap recording artist I am, but still  a Spiritual being continuing to experience as human. I still face and deal with way more than one can ever imagine. Ever heard of someone going through their Trial and Tribulations?

Check this out, it’s said that: “After one suffers a little while (Going through it). Down the road G-d restores, confirms, strengthens and establishes you.” 1Peter 5:10 Could that mean that, those everyday problems, and obstacles that you might have or be going through, in one’s head is somehow meant?

As man/artist I go through too. To want to do things, but are denied due to whatever the reason pick and comment one. The feeling of isolation and loneliness due to? Pick and comment one, and on top of that, you have that big one that’s called…… relationship. Something that can definitely be good especially around this time, but also drastically bad. But which one?

When It Comes to Time

Yea, there is a difference, and both can be damaging. I actually did a prior post on it called: “Relationships on Another Level” and both apply to this post. Can all this be an example of the battle of the mind? I would say so, because all of results back to what, thoughts. Like the song called “Oon A Mission.”

Where I say: “All I wanna do is find a cure.” (Click Here) to take a listen. So is that why? If you read the verse left above, you know why I’m asking.

Maybe it will also be helpful to and for those eyes that seek. Just a lil light something for the mind, heart and Spirit, especially during this time of the season. Still very early in the game of winter and holiday.

Wintertime came when least expected, and it’s different too. Meaning, there’s quite a ways to still go up to April we aren’t even in January yet. And though I find self drifting feeling down during winter and holiday. I can’t help but reflect back on the past 5 years, and all that I had faced, been through and must say, I get to feel a little fortunate.

Expanding on Thoughts

To make it through much of…… if you only knew. But those who know, they know. TIME, time taken just to do this post. To reflect, and now even more grateful especially after watching my video from years ago. And at the same time, I get to appreciate self because I know me!

Almighty G-d knows my mind, heart and what I’m going through as well as feeling. The way I’ve been feeling down during winter and holiday. NOT wanting to face and go through what I have. Not being able to just drive and ride either one of the vehicles that truly helps me, to get things done and not just me. Yep, them car, and truck problems are a mutha#%@!ah are they not?

My reasons and purpose are much different and that’s why it bothers and troubles me, a bit more. Straight up good @$$ reasons for feeling down during winter and holiday are they not?
