Hope is still a choice....

This is still a sign for me.

I am here (not just on this Earth, but here here) for a reason.

I need to not just have an outlook, but an uplook.

And hope is still a choice to choose every day.

And as I sit here on the eve of the day I will need hope the most,

as usual, even when it's difficult,

I will choose to hope

because it's the only way I know

to get through every day.

As fear tries it's best to grip my soul,

I pray,

I try to distract myself,

I deep breathe,

I fight back tears,

but most of all...

I hope.

Because at the end of the day,

I can make all the preparations I want,

take all the precautions I want,

but hope in something greater than myself is all that I have.

~Psalm 91~
