when there is no hope, then everything will fall to pieces. entropy and all of that.

the idea put forth by the show "quantum leap," that "another" could jump into your body for a period of time to set things right, it is a premise that i attempt to enact in my daily life. of course, i don't literally believe in or wait for "another" to jump in; however, i have to pretend a fresh perspective day by day, and oftentimes moment by moment, in order to go on. because i know at times that life can seem screwed up, problem-riddled, and if i don't believe in this "fresh pair of eyes" that comes in to save things, then i might as well let everything go to shit. because it will.
