Day 3 - 3 -- Anticipation

9-1/2 hours left before classes begin again. There is always some trepidation involved in beginning a new term. While watching a movie today, I heard a statement that summed up my feelings well.  It was The Second Best Exotic Marigold Hotel, in which the character played by Judith Dench stated, "The difference between what we want and what we fear is the width of an eyelash."  How terribly insightful that is. The two feelings often go hand in hand and are given such names as anxiety, distress and anticipation.

A song that seemed to fit this feeling well is shared here today. The lyrics speak to the need to face such situations with bravery. So -- tomorrow morning will begin with a few deep breaths and then move forward as needed. Enjoy!

Brave -- Josh Groban
