Day 100!

“In a mood of faith and hope my work goes on. A ream of fresh paper lies on my desk waiting for the next book. I am a writer and I take up my pen to write.”

― Pearl S. Buck

I began the 99 Days with no idea how I’d write them. I’m amazed I found inspiration each day – it shows the power of giving your word and sitting down at your desk every day – and if I can do that then you can do anything too, I’m sure. Anyway, I ended up enjoying it all so much that I couldn’t resist doing a bonus day!

This morning the sun is shining, the daffodils are out, the smell of spring is in the air… and HOPE is out there in the world. Which is lovely but, like most fulfilled dreams, it hasn’t changed my life. I feel proud to have done it, pleased to have achieved something I worked so hard at and grateful for the opportunity. But I’m not any happier than I was before. And that is the important thing to know about fulfilling your dreams. It’s a wonderful thing to do but it won’t make you happy, only one thing can do that: you.
