(13,141 posts)I had a bit of a rough day on DU and it's great to get
positive feedback. I just wanted to add that there is
that same hopefulness in everybody. You see it in a baby.
We are born with it. It never goes away. It just gets
covered up with all the crap we acquire as we grow up.
Have you see those Russian nesting dolls? They are
like us. One self inside another, inside another.
Inside the adult is the young man or woman, and the
child, and the baby, and all the selves in between,
one inside the next. All those selves are still there in
us.
The tiniest doll at the very center of the doll is
like our original self. It is not empty inside, it's solid.
That's where the perpetual hopefulness is, in that
part of us.
And you see it in nature, every spring, no matter
what, so much life comes up out of the earth,
with no judgement whatsoever of us wrecking the earth,
bringing us color, oxygen, fragrance, food. Nature is
the most hopeful of all.
