when i was a girl

i watched milk tonight and it was such a good movie. what sort of stayed with me and had me thinking was something he said in the movie at the end. how you've got to have hope. that's something i haven't really had in a long time. this year has been so hard for me and i realized that i'm scared to hope, scared that what i hope for will never be. and that is so sad, it makes me sad. how do i hope again? i'm going to be thinking about it.
