What is Hope?
Hope is knowing that a positive outcome awaits.
Hope is not only expecting a dream to come true,
But also having a deep assurance
That it's within your reach.
Hope is saying you can.
Hope is knowing that you can improve
And that you always get better with practice.
Hope is knowing that you can achieve your goals
Through hard work and persistence.
Hope is looking to the future with joy
And having an expectation of
Better things to come.
Hope is the knowledge that life is everlasting,
And that miracles happen every day.
Hope is something that never abandons you.
Even when your life is filled with
Sadness and disappointment,
A spark remains inside to help you
Get through the rough times.
Hope is one of God's greatest gifts to you,
Because it's the magic that inspires you
To keep trying, learning, loving, and living..

it is all your fault.
Each time I miss you, a star falls down from the sky. So if you look up and find it dark, it is all your fault. You made me miss you too much
— “How To Talk To Little Girls” by Lisa Bloom
Teaching girls that their appearance is the first thing you notice tells them that looks are more important than anything. It sets them up for dieting at age 5 and foundation at age 11 and boob jobs at 17 and Botox at 23. As our cultural imperative for girls to be hot 24/7 has become the new normal, American women have become increasingly unhappy. What’s missing? A life of meaning, a life of ideas and reading books and being valued for our thoughts and accomplishments.”
— Anais Nin
“From the backstabbing co-worker to the meddling sister-in-law, you are in charge of how you react to the people and events in your life. You can either give negativity power over your life or you can choose happiness instead. Take control and choose to focus on what is important in your life. Those who cannot live fully often become destroyers of life.”
–Mitchell Burgess
“If winter is slumber and spring is birth, and summer is life, then autumn rounds out to be reflection. It’s a time of year when the leaves are down and the harvest is in and the perennials are gone. Mother Earth just closed up the drapes on another year and it’s time to reflect on what’s come before.”
– Will Cooper in Thirteen Moons by Charles Frazier
“We are not made strong enough to stand up against
endless grief. And yet pain is the constant drone of life.
So if we are to have any happiness at all,
it is only in the passing instant.”

Make A Difference
There was once a wise man that used to go to the ocean to do his writing. He had a habit of walking on the beach before he began his work. He was walking along the shore one day when he saw a human figure moving like a dancer. He smiled to himself as he didn’t think anybody would dance on the beach at this time of the day. Hence, he began to walk faster to try and catch up with the person. As he got closer, he saw that the person was a young man and he wasn’t dancing. Instead, he was reaching down to pick up something on the beach every now and then before throwing it into the ocean very gently. When the wise man got closer, he called out, “Good morning! What are you doing?” The young man looked up and replied, “Throwing starfish into the ocean.” “Why are you throwing starfish into the ocean?” “The sun is up and the tide is going down. If I don’t throw them in they’ll die.” “There are miles and miles of beach and there are starfishes all along it. You can’t possibly make a difference!” The young man listened politely. Then he bent down, picked up another starfish and threw it into the sea, past the breaking waves. He said, “It made a difference for that one.” Each of us can make a difference to this world. Everybody is useful and it is just a matter of whether you want to make a difference.
