Yes, it is sort of a big decision. When we look at the bigger picture, things can be so different… and all very optimistic! Thanks so much 🙂

Ah, yes, how often we fail to be optimistic in our reasoning!

There are so many changes in life, so we need to put thought into these changes and remain optimistic! I see it in the areas of health and education especially. The bigger picture is what we need to focus on! 🙂 Thank you for your thoughts on this, Gallivanta. Have a good week 🙂

I find that usually there’s been a lot of pondering prior to the actual decision, and in fact, often the preface lies heavier on our shoulders, but we don’t always know it. Either way, optimism is a wonderful guiding factor. Really enjoyed your poem, Iris. 🙂
