(Inspired by a conversation with my sister, Jen. And thanks to Kent for encouraging her with such lovely ideas.)

“Expect not the dream, nor your worst nightmare; for both may eventually come. Dream, feel, plan; but expect nothing. Then will bliss, gratitude, and a joyful life crawl from the caves of past and future to stand next to you in ease. What dream would be worth anything without those? And what nightmare could be bearable in their absence?” -AmyJalapeño.com
