op·ti·mism n. - # A tendency to expect the best possible outcome or dwell on the most hopeful aspects of a situation: “There is a touch of optimism in every worry about one's own moral cleanliness” (Victoria Ocampo).

Maybe things are coming together for me... It feels like the sun is again shining. My side business has turned out to be incredibly rewarding spiritually. The money has yet to materialize, but the relief I bring to my clients and their families is incredibly gratifying. Maybe I have been chasing the wrong dream, looking for a quick score... merely chasing after material wealth. As a young man in todays world that seems to be what everyone is looking for, the path of least resistance to buy more "stuff". I realize now that I may have been blessed with my abilities to help people not just to chase after the quick dollar. The road of my life has forked and I have chosen to take the road of my heart not the road of society. Wish me luck.  ¶ 9:55 AM
