As I find myself trying to accomplish many seemingly impossible to reach goals, I want to believe that my "Foi"(Faith) will get me there. Lucky for me, my "Foi" has always been independent of my physical being. If it knew what my body was thinking, it would probably try to talk me out of doing anything. Most days, my body wakes up moaning and tells me that I am either too tired or too busy. In sharp contrast, my "Foi" always wakes up rested and with a "Can Do" attitude. "Let's get things done" it would say, "Wake up and live your dreams!". I for the life of me, could not understand how my "Foi" could always be so cheerful and optimistic.
- "How can you possibly know that what I am doing is going to pay off?" I'd ask my "Foi".
- "I just know..." it would answer, before reminding me to be patient.
- "Ok, I trust you", I found myself saying before diving back into my work.
Days, weeks, and months would go by with "Foi" and I having the same conversation. And every day, "Foi" answered with the same assuredness.

Alors, je continue à travailler avec confiance, parce que j'ai la Foi que tout ira bien.

P.S. I want to thank James for becoming a fan of this blog and for his well wishes.
