Stuckness in Depression / Cynicism - Mindful Vow to keep Opening

     "When we're mindful, there should be surprises." Stephanie Morgan, psychologist & social worker

     She contrasts this to the state of stuckness / pseudocontrol people suffering from depression experience. Whether in a depressed pseudocontrol mode or an "armor of intellectual complacency", stuck is stuck. 

     The antidote would seem to be a commitment or vow to fearless ongoing process of opening to what is.
