At some point you decided or is considering having an Internet presence through the use of a blog or website. The development of an interactive, content rich and up to date blog and website is an ongoing process if you want to attract visitors, encourage them to stay and have them opt in to your call to action.
This blog, as you know, has changed over time. It is presently undergoing revision and tweaking to make it easy for you to navigate and for me to publish information that you can use in creating lifestyles of wellness for yourselves, your families and your businesses. I appreciate your patience while this development is underway!
This development and revision reminded me of article written (Jan. 6, 2009) by Karyn Greenstreet which I share with you below. Rather than write an excerpt of the article, with Karyn’s permission, I’ve written it in it’s entirety. It’s worth a read!

Recently I had the pleasure of talking with a woman who has brought depression from darkness into the light and is working diligently to help reduce the cases of profound depression. she is Terrie M. Williams (picture above), mental health advocate, author and social worker. Williams is also President of her PR company, The Terrie Williams Agency, which is located in New York.
Terrie Williams has not been immune to depression. She lived with low grade depression for a lon period of time. Everyday she would go out into the world with her game face on. In 2004 she was officially diagnosed with depression. The pretense had ended! The depression had become so severe that she couldn’t get out of be and didn’t care if she got out of bed. It took all her energy just to get up. Her friends came to her aide because she wasn’t returning phone calls. The anxiety, depression and her thoughts of not seeing the light at the end of the tunnel was overpowering.
