"Priceless!" was my reaction to "Abandon 'hopefully.'"<br /><br />Mali, I tend to agree. And, BTW, you're not the only one who's having trouble getting comments to go through.

But seeming to be contrary is the holding to hope and losing the present moment...that is also true...but can seem debilitating, if you give way to despair...as a buddhist I think one is to let go of many of the emotions which lead to suffering...but I'm not sure. I struggle with buddhist concepts, however also identify with buddhism more than anything else.jaimiebhttp://web.me.com/jaimieb/Site/Blog/Blog.htmlnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2226876762714358061.post-4219376044721696322011-01-17T20:25:10.706-05:002011-01-17T20:25:10.706-05:00Hope is the town in Arkansas where Bill Clinton wa...Hope is the town in Arkansas where Bill Clinton was born.<br />Hope is the name of a big diamond found in Africa.<br />Hope is the title of a great novel by Andre Malraux.<br />Hope is the refuge of cowards.
