“People don’t fake depression.
They fake being okay.
Remember that.
Be Kind”
We are All
such good ‘actors’ and ‘actresses’
that we hide behind the mask
of “everything’s OK”
and no one really knows
what we are feeling or thinking.
We appreciate that person
who goes that extra mile
to just sit down and listen to us.
They are showing that
they Respect us.
Depression affects the mind
and a person becomes depressed
after going through a ‘difficult time’,
and sometimes
all he or she needs
is to just ‘talk it out’
to clear their mind.
And like we appreciate that help
and Respect ourselves,
so would he or she.
“Be Kind”.
Other words for Kindness or Kind are:
Compassionate,
Mild,
Tender.
Sometimes that is all a person needs
— a kind word —
to make them feel a little better.
LIVE AND LOVE LIFE!

A More Human Vocal
When we launched Vocal nearly a decade ago, the world was a very different place. LLMs did not exist, and stories were created one at a time by people sitting down to write, revise, and share something personal. Many of our assumptions about publishing, trust, and participation were built for a world where effort and output were inseparable.
