Hope

Good Morning All:

"Beyond every dark cloud, beyond every thick layer of grayness, the sun is always shining --- knowing that fills me with hope!"  (Author Unknown)

We have just completed the month of January. Many feel the "winter blues." The lights, hustle (some times chaos), joy and stress of Christmas are over. I noticed that as the outside lights turned off one by one until next year, and as the decorations were once again taken down and put away until next year, there is a bit of an emotional let down. The darkness seems longer. The weather seems colder. No more external twinkling to cheer us. Many will experience a  period of depression.

This is when we turn to our "inner light" to help light the world.  Focus on sharing your smile, kindness, and helpfulness with others. This will light your life as well as others. "Travel light, live light, spread the light, be the LIGHT!" (Mary Engelbreit)

Of all my treasurers great and small, HOPE is the very bet of them all!

We need the HOPE of love, peace, joy and happiness.

Nature does not lose hope during the winter time. Nature uses winter as a time to rest, renew and be ready to come forth again in spring.

HOPE springs eternal. Fine the HOPE within you that can lead to peace.

The world does not offer peace. We must turn to God and to all that is good in order to find peace.

When the going gets tough and there's no hope to be found, clean something, arrange something, or just move things around! Life is Good. HOPE is available. It is our responsibility to fine HOPE and to develop it.

Make a Great Day

Dr, Susan
