Great rivers are born from little drops of water. Work is not lacking in my life at the moment, and this is a great time for me to buckle down in both my personal and professional life. Work is not something I have ever shied away from. I embrace it today and end the day feeling the satisfaction that comes from jobs well done.
Today I doubted my happiness. I have started questioning myself. I could not believe, with so many heart-breaking things happening, how can I manage to be in peace? Maybe this optimism is part of me. I no longer have the feeling that things will end up well. Now, instead of just hoping, I work for the good things to happen.
Perhaps, I no longer hope. Or should I say expect?

As you say , Shy , hope is necessary but not sufficient . Acting is necessary but you already do .

What Fauquet said is the key, don’t just hope, act on the hope.
Hmm… maybe you have stopped living, and are now feeling the life.
Don’t worry everything will be ok. You sound like you are feeling a little upset today in this post. I am hoping tomorrow brings you much happiness and joy.
I am glad you like Andrea Bocelli, he is also one of my favorites!
