I have to believe that every tiny baby step brings me closer to my imagined result.  Is that not a definition of hope?  Every day I look upon what is and appreciate it for that.  But, I can’t help but believe that what I envision as a future is a possibility within my reach.

So I allow the time to dream, the precious moments of what could be…

And I work.  I take the time, the steps, and expend the energy to reach for it…

The definition of hope is  “a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen.”  But is it really about me and my desires?  Are my goals that important?

Yes.  I answer yes because when I believe all things are possible I believe in you and I believe in me.  My search for hope includes you.  I share my weaknesses and my life experiences so that it may help someone, somewhere.

Too many weights pull us below our true potential.  My greatest hope today is that together, we can learn to lift the weights and become strong enough to reach our dreams.
