Hope is the thing that is willing to take a chance on the future. Hope is the capacity to see something on the horizon that we are willing to move toward. If our hope gets us from today to tomorrow, and in that new day we are ready or able to deal with something we thought we couldn’t face, then hope has done its job. There is a worse thing than false hope. It is no hope.
Miles Levin - the young man I told you about a while back who is dying of cancer, granted a "final interview" to his mom today. Miles is days, if not hours away from leaving this earth and, once again, I feel like his words are so worth sharing.

Ann, I have went back and read his entire journal from the beginning. It is amazing and truly humbling. He is the picture of true courage and strength. And his Mother's entries always make me sob.
I too hope his passing is peaceful.

Its funny, I can write about all the stuff I have gone through and read Jack's blog and Journal of many others but Miles.....wow.....I can barely get through it....its more real than anything I have read, the way he talks so openly and honestly. The pain I know his mother is feeling shakes me to my core.
