What is HOPE

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.

Go Deep

Go Deep Most of us think too much, especially about events and people,  local and global, famous and not so famous. When we are always thinking about what is happening on the surface of life,  the visible, then it is as if we are living a superficial life. Deep down inside there is a voice, a longing, a calling to depth. It's our heart,  reminding us to visit, explore and express the depths of our ourselves.  Going deep and being deep requires time spent in solitude, some periods of introversion and a conversation with ourselves.  How on earth will we ever see what is in our heart unless we  dive deep inside, switch on the light and look. Those who do will tell you it changes everything. What do they see?  Simple, only beauty and truth. They are always there, waiting for us to return.  Waiting to welcome us and to introduce ourselves to ourself. ~unknown~

Let it Begin With You

Let it Begin With You

Today, be in peace. 
Take a moment to fill yourself with peace
And to know the truth:  it all begins with you.

Be the light that shines out for the world.
 Be the beacon of hope and love, joy and wonder. 
Be the bright glow in the life of everyone you touch this year
 And know that your glow ignites them and that they then ignite others. 

And this wondrous glow of love and joy can spread rapidly,
Person to person, reaching around the globe, filling hearts
 With love and lives with laughter.  And it all begins with you.

Take a deep breath and fill yourself with love and light. 
See your own light glowing inside and then spreading out.
  And now lift yourself up, up and up, until you see that
You are a star in the night sky, shining down on the world,
 Your love and your light blessing all below. 

You are this light, this shining star of hope and joy for millions.
 Allow yourself to be this.  Allow yourself to step into
 Your full power to be the peace that the world yearns for. 

Let it begin within you and fill every word, every gesture,
 Every touch, everything you do today and in the coming year,
 In the coming lifetime. 
Let it begin with you.
