Sometimes things don't go, after all, from bad to worse. Some years, muscadel faces down frost; green thrives; the crops don't fail Sometimes a man aims high, and all goes well
A people sometimes will step back from war, elect an honest man; decide they care enough, that they can't leave some stranger poor. Some men become what they were born for.
Sometimes our best efforts do not go amiss; sometimes we do as we meant to. the sun will sometimes melt a field of sorrow that seemed hard frozen: may it happen for you.
