optimistic

"optimism is the foundation of courage."  
- nicholas murray butler -
"cultivate an attitude of happiness
cultivate a spirit of optimism
walk with faith
rejoicing
 in the beauties of nature, 
in the goodness of those you love
...
look for the remarkable good
 ...
speak of one another’s virtues
 more than faults, 
that optimism replace pessimism, 
that our faith exceeds our fears."
 - gordon b. hinckley -


without optimism, i would be a sorry waste of organs. this optimism is tangible when you reach for it. and today, terrified and jumbled i reached, and the clouds are parting to reveal a bounty of sunshine.
