“Hope...It's like a drop of honey, a field of tulips blooming in the springtime. It's a fresh rain, a whispered promise, a cloudless sky, the perfect punctuation mark at the end of a sentence..." ~ Tahereh Mafi

"And it's the only thing in the world keeping me afloat,” says author Tahereh Mafi

What is hope like for you? What sights, smells, and sounds lift your spirit?

Are you floating easily and comfortably in life today? Or not? 

For anyone struggling to stay afloat: remember how conditions are always changing. Sometimes change happens in a moment's breath.

Until hope fills and lifts you, reach for the hope of hope.

Imagine that hope is like a supportive hand that has your back. You can rest on that hand. Imagine it is the hand of a certain wise and loving angel, your guide and guardian, who is always near, supporting you in many ways, just as you need. 

Let's use our imaginations today to experience the sweetness of hope.

Faith too,
Charlene
