“Hold fast to dreams,
For if dreams die
Life is a broken-winged bird,
That cannot fly.”
~Langston Hughes

What gives me hope is this happy, little dude. Our new puppy Gibson!
Watching the sunset gives me hope because I know that after a rest, it will rise again.
My kids give me hope. They see endless possibility in the future. They are undaunted. They live in the moment.
