It effects everyone. “A typical middle-income family making $40,000 to $64,000 a year could see its taxes go up by $2,000 in 2013 if lawmakers fail to renew a lengthy roster of tax cuts set to expire at the end of 2012, according to a new report Monday, Oct. 1, 2012.

Be Thankful – To offset signs of depression, use the words “thank you.” These are two of the most amazing words that can change the way we feel. Say thank you to the people in your life who make you smile. Send a note of thanks to people who have made a positive impact on your life.
