Today began uphill. I actually just deleted two paragraphs of dispair...and in their place, I'm pasting an snippit of something else:

"Believe in the God whom I call the Almighty and Eternal Dreamer of Great Dreams. And He shares His dreams with people like you who allow His impossible dream possess you. Dare to say, "God, with Your blessing, I'll try." And if you want to quit, ask God and He will say, "Don't quit. Hang in there." Dream the greatest dream and make it happen and the Almighty Dreamer of Great Dreams will make miracles happen."
