Hope

Haiti is on my mind every day, and most especially in the morning.  Climbing out of a warm bed, fixing myself a hot cup of coffee in a treasured mug, taking a shower with my favorite soaps, all used to be acts I pretty much took for granted.  Not since the earthquake.

Then I learned of the 5 year old boy rescued yesterday, a week after the disaster. Hope—even the tiniest glimmer of it—helps heal even the deepest wounds.

“We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope.” — Martin Luther King, Jr.

“Hope is always available to us. When we feel defeated, we need only take a deep breath and say, “Yes,” and hope will reappear.”  — Monroe Forester

“Hope’s the thing with feathers — That perches in the soul- — And sings the tune without the words — And never stops — at all.” — Emily Dickenson

May hope lighten your heart and your path today!
