Hope Whispering




When the world says
"Give up,"
Hope whispers
"Try it one more time."

Author Unknown


There must be a line between stupidity and the willingness to try something one more time.  There is an old saying, "Fool me once shame on you.  Fool me twice shame on me."  

Forgiveness comes easily to me, but once trust is broken I am definitely challenged.  Life seems to offer a dance, but I just cannot seem to master the rhythm. 

My meditations and contemplations seem to be unfolding a shift in my awareness.  I am replacing worry with wonder which immediately shifts a heaviness that I have been carrying in my heart.

It seems as though my life has been fear based.   Now I am attempting to daily engage life with an open loving heart and by being simply aware of the changes of others.  Perhaps strength comes from maintaining my own sense of self and just letting others unfold.  The result is hope whispering in my ears.
