I asked "Bearygoodie" if I could borrow this from her post. She gave me her blessings...

I am off for the weekend, I HOPE you all keep up the HOPE as you've all have given me HOPE time and time again.

"Let's go do the HOPE, oh baby... "

Quote:
"Hope is one of our central emotions, but we are often at a loss when asked to define it. Many of us confuse hope with optimism, a prevailing attitude that 'things turn out for the best.' But hope differs from optimism. Hope does not arise from being told to 'think positively,' or from hearing an overly rosy forecast. Hope, unlike optimism, is rooted in unalloyed reality. Hope is the elevating feeling we experience when we see--in the mind's eye--a path to a better future. Hope acknowledges the significant obstacles and deep pitfalls along that path. True hope has no room for delusion. Clear-eyed, hope gives us the courage to confront our circumstances and the capacity to surmount them."

Dr. Jerome Groopman

If you - symbolically speaking - get

thrown into a tumbler (like a stone) -

it depends fully on yourself if you get

crushed or if you come out of it a

polished, sparkling diamond.

Hope.

Hope?

It's within you. I found it, so I figure you can find it too, although it might take time and assistance.

"Hope" seems to mean many different things to different people.

Hope to me is really vivid.

I was 4 years old when I found what hope is...

I'm sort of glad I found it when I did although it's changed my life so very much. Hope kept me alive. The flowers in the garden kept me alive since I was 4 years old. I go look out there in the light every single day of my life and I see...

Life.

I LIVE.
