“Because today, I think I’m leaning on the side of wonder.” Melina Marchetta
With Hope She stood as if leaning against the wind, but there was no wind, just her tired frame pitted against an invisible pressure, feted with a comfortable pose well practiced, leaning into life as if pitching towards uncertainty, leaning with intent, with hope, she had been leaning for sometime towards hope.

Ooooh I love this; I recognise this stance and it is one that I would like to rest into more and more.
I love the serendipity and synchronicity of this, Paul, as today I was talking to an older friend about these very things, and the phrase came to me: ‘Hope is a rehearsal for joy’ which I am savouring today in the face of both remembered joys and grieving sadnesses.
Such is life, ever oscillating betweenwise,,, Go well, and thanks!

Ah, yes! Hope, when what isn’t there is strong enough to support you and uncertainty is forgotten as trust rebuilds.
