Yes, I was sitting in a library when I started to write this, but it changed radically this morning.
The Free Lending Library
Librarians soon learn everything
is on loan, and, despite their best
efforts, much goes missing and
unreturned. Yet they remain
smiling, helpful, and merciful –
confident the lost have been kept
out of love and not ill intent
and hopeful that what is long
overdue may still be renewed
and all fines will be forgiven.

Despite the fact that some important things go wrong,some people keep doing their work and the hope...maybe we have to hope too!!!
