Love is holding on to the incomparable beauty and goodness that you have found. It is clinging to every bit of it that remains, to the tiniest speck of its radiance which alone can warm your heart.
The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
