It made me think of the ending of THE GREAT GILLY HOPKINS, which always brings me to to tears. Gilly has thrown away her chance to live with the loving Maime Trotter, and now she’s talking to Trotter on the phone. Trotter tells Gilly that life is tough, no doubt about it. Gilly says to her, well, if life is so bad, why are you so happy? Trotter says, I didn’t say it was bad, I said it was tough.

You’re so right that tough years aren’t necessarily bad years. Good and bad DO come together. But I hope 2014 ends up being less tough for you. I do.
