Is Hope Always Paradise?

Hope and Bird of Paradise

Hope and Bird of Paradise

 

Have you asked yourself, “Does having Hope create a paradise?” If so, you know it doesn’t. So one may ask, then why should I have Hope? Let me tell you why, because to Hope means everything. One of the beautiful wonders of being human is the capacity to Hope.

In the midst of hoping for something I have often wondered how I could actually have hope when the situation looked completely impossible. That is the beauty of Hope. It lifts us up above the situation and allows us to have a new perspective. When we are faced with a difficult situation or anything that calls for Hope we have a choice to make. We can choose Hope or Hopelessness.

When we choose Hope it gives us strength to continue moving forward. And although it does not create a paradise, it is a thing of beauty that makes our heart sing. So please, choose Hope today! 🙂

Soul On Fire

“When you feel like hope is gone, look inside you and be strong and you’ll finally see the truth- that hero lies in you.”

― Mariah Carey

Inside of each and every one of us lies a hero. Sometimes it feels like all hope is lost. When these times occur we must go inside and tap into strength that lies within us. Hope springs eternal in the human soul. And the human soul on fire is the most powerful force on earth. If you feel like your hope is gone, look within, there you will find it. May your soul be on fire and FULL of HOPE! 🙂

Follow Your Dreams

Let me see you hearts! May they be full of Hope! 🙂

Love And Hope

imageftcvs

This morning while I was in my garden watering the plants, a baby bunny hopped right up to me. He stopped about 12 inches from my feet and started eating some grass. I stood there in awe. It was so precious. As I stood there watching him, I felt love flood my heart. I knew in that moment it was the love emanating from me that gave that little bunny the green light to come near me.

Love is unconditional. Love matters. And it is the only thing I have to give in my current situation. Last week I received some life shattering news. My only grandchild was diagnosed with a devastating disease that typically causes premature death. My heart is torn almost in two and yet, I remain in love.

I had asked my grandson several years ago, “what is hope?”and he answered, “it’s love.” Hope is Love and Love is Hope. They operate together and now more than ever I am centering myself on the two of them. Although I do not know what the future holds, I know who holds the future and He is Love. There, I shall remain.

A Better Place

I have Hope, together we can make this world a better place!

Let Go – Grow Hope

254875660131657113_16xSn2N9_b

“Renew, release, let go. Yesterday’s gone. There’s nothing you can do to bring it back. You can’t “should’ve” done something. You can only DO something. Renew yourself. Release that attachment. Today is a new day!”
―    Steve Maraboli

Want to grow your Hope? Let go of old hurts and things of the past. There is not a thing we can do to change yesterday. However, we can have a better today and an even more wonderful tomorrow when we let go of the heaviness yesterday can bring. When you carry that hurt around it continually causes that injury to fester. Letting go allows the wound to heal. Healing ushers in Hope.

Let Go and Grow Hope!

A World Of Hope

“He thought there was no hope for him.

Me? I couldn’t imagine a world without hope.”  ― Richelle Mead

This world is not an easy place to dwell, no doubt. There are times when it seems that everything is at war with what we seek. And yet, Hope is always there on the horizon calling us forward. Moving in it is a choice we must actively make. If you have been thinking there is no hope for you, I am here to tell you there is, guaranteed. Do you have Hope now? Be a Hope Messenger and share it with someone in need. We can help others see a way when they can’t see their own. Hope and Blessings to you! 🙂 🙂

“Every new day is a once in a lifetime event. How much more exciting would our lives be if we embraced this truth and lived accordingly?!”

When life threatens to dash your dreams, there’s always a brand new day on the way! So don’t give up or give in, look up and see hope is new each day!

No Vision No Hope

imagesCA0P5HLVvisions

“Where there is no vision, there is no hope.”

– George Washington Carver

“Where there is no vision, the people perish” ~Proverbs 29:18 King James version

Do you have vision? Dictionary.com tells us to have vision means-the act or power of anticipating that which will or may come to be: an experience in which a personage, thing, or event appears vividly or credibly to the mind, although not actually present, often under the influence of a divine or other agency: something seen or otherwise perceived during such an experience: The vision revealed its message: a vivid, imaginative conception or anticipation.

We all have the capacity for having vision. We must set our minds to it and then act on it before we see it with the naked eye. Having vision creates an atmosphere for hope. It’s true, no vision, no hope. Without hope, we cease to want to live. Look inside and find your vision.

May you be full of hope and vision!
