Hope is a great thing to have....it's the unfortunate side effect of hope that I'm having a hard time with. How do you have hope without expectations? I just can't seem to separate the two but you seem to do it so well.
Thank you for the compliment! I'm not sure I really do do it that well. When I hope something, it's like a wish, or a prayer.....kind of like wishing for (apologies for my poor example here) the drug I am working on to work on my patients. I really wish and hope it will. But I don't expect it to- I detach myself from it (drugs become like children to their inventors!) so I can examine every action I take towards it objectively. I'm pessimistic about it's chances, I guess. And I take the same stance with H- wish he'd sort things out, but with pessimism that that won't happen. I don't know if that makes any sense.
I listen to this sometimes. H and I used to listen to it often and enjoy how peaceful things were with us. It's quite good for helping me detach from things.
