i have a fondness for meaningful quotes. while looking for a symbol representing 'hope' (i love this word), i found this:

Look to this day… In it lies all the realities and verities of existence, the bliss of growth, the splendor of action, the glory of power. For yesterday is but a dream and tomorrow is only a vision. But today, well-lived, makes every yesteday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope. - Sanskrit Proverb

that howie day song from yesterday? the beginning makes me think of a bette midler song from 'some people's lives'. quit laughing. it sounds like the beginning of 'one more round'. i haven't listened to that soundtrack in ages, but somehow my brain connected 'ghost' to it. i swear i have the oddest brain synapses sometimes. go back and listen again. doesn't it?
