One Little Word

The message was received this winter, or maybe it was in the spring.

I think hope is a wonderful choice for your One Little Word**.  Hope floats.

 Then my friend sent me the graphic.  Aha!

I have been clinging to the string of the balloon, keeping my chin up, continuing to push forward and follow my passions.

The balloon and my attitude kept rising up, up, up.

This summer has already been busy and I continue to be hopeful.

Hopeful for the present and the future.

Hopeful that I can do what I'm wired to do.

Hope is a wonderful choice for my one little word of 2015.
Even if it's nearly July.

Everyone needs hope.

    I love your choice of OLW and the graphic is darling. I've thought and thought about having a OLW, but haven't nailed one down. With that said, I'm feeling particularly inspired to actually pick one after reading your lovely post.

    I think "hope" is a terrific word. And I love the graphic. So what if you didn't choose it right away, still lots of 2015 left!

    Not only a wonderful word, but such a great feeling also. I can see you spirits lifting already.

    I love the graph that accompanies the word. It's what I imagine hope looks like.
