This is the only thing I want to keep in mind for 2012

"Love is better than anger. Hope is better than fear. Optimism is better than despair. So let us be loving, hopeful and optimistic. And we'll change the world."

	I only wish hope and optimism were easier for me, you know? I can do love, but the latter two may well be beyond my capacity at the moment. And I was already feeling kind of awful for feeling so cynical in the last couple of years, but now I feel like I'm betraying Jack by feeling that way. I will do my best, though. It's a worthy goal, for sure. -J (Reply to this)

	I can usually dredge up a bedraggled bit of hope, but optimism has been beyond me for years. Love...may grow again. (Reply to this)

	I have that quote pinned up next to my desk at work. I think it's a pretty good theme for 2012. (Reply to this)
