Have you encountered folks who seem to be intent on bashing your hopes and dreams? I admit, there are times when I begin to listen to their words of doom and gloom. If I shift my attention, they begin to sound like an anvil chorus: "BANG! DON'T HOPE for MORE or ANYTHING than HEARTACHE!" Funny though, once I began singing along with that tune, it made me laugh! How can anyone HOPE for heartache? Our hearts are keyed into joy, for love, for light, for more of all that shines in the dark and brightens the day. When I remember that, their next CLANG! strikes Sparks and SPLITS that bit of hope into *Star Seeds* that spin off into souls who are open and ready to grow more hope! Hope has enemies. They worry, work, and hammer hard to undermine Hope. They pound their message, clanging, banging, knowing Hope can be hidden, dismissed and denied. Hope’s allies are noisy, chanting their truth~ Hope always returns when invited. Hope regenerates. If someone manages to shatter Hope, it sparks and scatters away from attackers. Hope’s remnants fly and multiply for ALL who welcome it home in their hearts. DonnaMarie Fekete, 30 March 2016 WEDNESDAY is HOPE DAY in the Finest Hour Community on Facebook.
