Flying with hope

As I get older or perhaps it is wiser not older, I find that I no longer need to big ticket items to make me happy. I do not count the birthday or Christmas gifts. I do not worry about making as much money as someone else. And I try very hard not to compare my life's rewards with others. Those are not the things that I hope for these days. Yes, it took awhile for me to move beyond that, but I can honestly say that I have.

My great hope is to laugh as much as I cry; to get my work done and try to love somebody and have the courage to accept the love in return.
