Your journal entry reminded me of the following poem
LOVE AFTER LOVE

The time will come
when, with elation
you will greet yourself arriving
at your own door, in your own mirror
and each will smile at the other's welcome.

and say, sit here. Eat.
You will love again the stranger who was yourself
Give wine, Give bread, Give back your heart to itself, to the stranger who has loved you

all your life, whom you ignored
for another, who knows you by heart.

Take down the love letters from the bookshelf,

the photographs, the desperate notes,
peel your own image from the mirror.
Sit. Feast on your life.

Derek Walcott

Those moments when I am unable in thought, frame, heart, spirit, and even it seems my soul, I wonder what it is the causes me to rise again like to a Phoenix. Sometimes I am even angry for awakening with the Sun because all care, all care of trying knowing sooner or later I will find myself in the mire and sinking. Then it returns to me that we were told we would be lifted from the mire and placed on a higher rock..but we were never told the more would be washed away. it is there to remind us were we once were and how far we have come, not in ourselves, but as you have said, it is Hope that raises us up one more time, one more step, one more try. It is Hope that breathes for us when we feel surely we cannot. Hope I believe was Starred within us when we were yet conceived and it is that Star that shines even though we have lost our luster. It is that Star that will remain when all else of me is but vapor and ash. It is that Star in is that reaches out and touches another's and so we pass a bit of our Stardust to one another and so we the Universe continues to burst forth in such coloration that no part of our being can Hope to comprehend...yet we by chance we touch in some way another Starred one...we just know.
