Make it happen…

Hope

•

with hope
we have direction
the energy to move
a map to follow
a hundred alternatives
a thousand paths
an infinity of dreams

with hope
we are half way there

without hope
we are lost forever

    Barack Obama embodies hope. His intellect, steady-hand and passion to set this country on the right direction is the best thing our country can hope for right now.

    Yes we can!

    We have to have hope in order to direct or develop our faith. We achieve this through strong leadership.

    I am really ‘hoping’ this November 4th many will heed those thoughts and vote accordingly….we are in dire need of change.

    Thank you for commenting on my blog!

    To answer your question “Did anyone teach you to blog?”. Well, I learned how to type from a typing program in school, I learned internet skills from my sister and Dad, and my sister does the tech. stuff for the websites, so really, for blogging, all I do is type..My sister also taught me how to add images, for the few entries that I choose to do that on…And I didn’t even know what a “blog” was until a friend of mine told me about it.

    *LOL* So I can’t even say that I learned to blog myself.

    Without hope it is impossible to go on. Even in my darkest hours there has been a little spark of hope niggling at the back of my mind. I don’t know what I would have done without that little spark. I hope we all remain ‘half way there.’

    Hope is always vital. But I’ve never known a top politician who doesn’t speak of it without seeing it as a means to better his career.
    MY hope is that one day the proper hopster politicians will have a chance. And I don’t see such a person in the present election front runners.

    Anthony -

    You wrote: “Hope is always vital. But I’ve never known a top politician who doesn’t speak of it without seeing it as a means to better his career.”

    You’ve allowed your mind and spirit to be poisoned by the international embarrassment that the slimy, crooked, fear-mongering, George Bush is.

    I hope you watched Obama’s acceptance speech tonight — if you did, you were watching a man of true dignity, integrity, sanity, and intelligence… he is the “real” thing, and he has arrived just in time for the world we live in.
