Hope Week #3: Beauty All Around

 Hope seems so illusive. Just when you think you understand it and feel it, you wonder if hope is what you are feeling after all. The sun is shining brightly and hope is a refreshing breeze floating by and then gone. Where can we find it again? Where should we look? I think we can start with beauty. It is all around us, giving us hope that life can be better one day just as it is in this one golden sunrise, one warm snuggle in the middle of the night, one strain of sweet music. What beauty is inspiring you to be more hopeful today? Share a pic and a comment!

One of our favorite places to visit over the past year has been the Birdsong Trail at Mendon Ponds Park. Every bird that pecks seeds from our open hands is a delight. On a cold bleak day these moments are golden.

The sky on the way home. I love pink especially in the sky.

"I've found that there is always some beauty left--in nature, sunshine, freedom, in yourself: these can all help you." ~ Anne Frank
