Hope is the dream of a soul awake.
~French Proverb

Pretty good day ^^ Classes went well, and work was alright. Definitely going to crash tonight though, as didn’t get quite enough sleep last night.

Once I found this quote, I just sat and stared at it for a while. There’s really not much I can add. In those few short words, everything that needs be said truly has been.

Many of us stumble about in a lethargic stupor – whether that be physical, mental or emotional. I know there are times when I am so drained that I can almost reach the point where I can barely see beyond the end of my nose so to speak. I’ve come very close to that place from time to time, but fortunately was not allowed to remain there.

As the stupor is slowly burned away, I find that it is Hope that increases. It is Hope that begins to fill the barren spaces, and allows them to grow and flourish. Hope becomes the response to the cries that – whether good intentioned or vicious – would claim that there is nothing more than learning to existence and carving out a place to hide your treasures.

I believe there is more to life, and it is this waking dream that carries me through each day.
