And when someone else speaks your name you feel pleased. You feel wanted. You feel there. Alive. Even if they're saying your name with dislike, at least you know you're you, that you exist.
When you have abandoned all past and future, it is as if you have come alive. You are here, mindful...the nature of all types of consciousness reveals itself.
At the risk of sounding naff, it is having hope fulfilled
To act as though we have hope is to keep hope alive
We must have hope or starve to death.
Keep your hopes up. Or down. Wherever you want them to be. Just have hope somewhere.
What weâ€™ve got to do is keep hope alive. Because without it weâ€™ll sink.
