'Hope springs eternal in the human breast'. So observed the poet Alexander Pope. Hope, observed Pope, cannot help but bounce back, even when it is seriously squashed. The most that its enemies can do, is pile so much weight upon it that it takes some while to recover.You are not a quitter. If you ever change your mind, it is only because you can see a good reason to re-evaluate a situation. Various developments have taken you into a process of review. You are almost ready to head in another direction, regardless of who this surprises or upsets. You can't let such sensitivity be the only reason for sticking with the original plan but nor can you allow your own refusal to be swayed by sentimentality, to become a justification in itself. There may yet be a strong case for carrying on as you were.
