Good on you @Rockdog ! You are right - NO ONE can ever break your hope. Hope comes from within. Forced hope isn't hope.

I'm with you on this one 🙂

I've had a really pleasant day today. My sister's in-laws are coming to stay at the end of this week, so I've got some preparation to do (my sister lives next door to me). 

I don't think I've mentioned this, but a guy has finally moved into one of my properties, and he is so grateful to have a roof over his head - he's trying to get clean. Being able to help someone really makes my day 🙂
