Meaning
This reads as a call to shape ordinary days around three steady habits, affection, trust, and hope. It can be taken to mean that a good life is built less by dramatic moments than by the stance you bring to each one, and it lands in times of fatigue or discouragement, when a person needs a simple rule for how to begin again.
