Focus on the Stars

 

Hope is important because it can make the present moment less difficult to bear. If we believe that tomorrow will be better, we can bear a hardship today.

Thich Nhat Hanh 

He says the best things that capture my attention and help me to hold on to that HOPE.

Just a flash back to a Joey picture.
 

When I saw this quote using my word for the year, HOPE, I knew today was the day I needed to share it. HOPE chose me because I just knew it was going to be a "difficult to bear" kind of year and for me I needed to hold on to HOPE. We must all "believe that tomorrow will be better".

Let's dream a little dream of a better day.

A day where the lights shine for each of us, the little glimmers that grow into the sunshine and warmth that holds us in the sparkles of light and flowers and gently rolling seashores. 

What I am watching today, puppies and kittens and a fund raiser for the Humane Society: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ICFiwn3-SOA&ab_channel=MeidasTouch    

 

I love pink noses on kittens. This is Frankie, my daughter's cat.

And since it is Martin Luther King Junior's birthday today, let's end with a quote by him.

"Darkness cannot drive out darkness, only light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate; only love can do that."

Sending love,

Marilyn

    I think we have to hold on to hope these days. It's not easy. I am so glad you posted a picture of Joey. It's good to see him again. Hugs.

    Hope is needful these days. I love the quote by MLK.

    That is the most delightful picture of Frankie. Sorry I haven't been around lately. I commented on one of your "focus on the stars" posts, and I got confused and didn't realize you posted again. One of my favorite Martin Luther King Jr. quotes for sure.
    The HOPE quote is so special too.
