Fourth, eleventh, ninth, and sixth,

Leap of Faith: hopeREVO
I took a leap of faith and joined this a site called “Shutter Sisters“. There are a lot of wonderful, insightful, talented, and righteous sisters-in-art there. My Goodness! I get such a great feeling when I’m there reading, looking, and posting.
While cruising around the submissions for Love Thursday I learned about “hopeREVO“, and what a concept it is—indeed. I’ve decided to have my own revolution of hope. Today I created my first batch of notes to leave around our town, as we go on about our daily routine. I plan on leaving these notes in various places, in the hope that those who find one will have their day brightened. My very own, simple, and beautiful Pay it Forward! It’s endearing and exciting to me, all at the same time.
My Hope Notes:
You can do it, too! Please do!
With this post comes to an end my Leap of Faith February. Thanks to Piper, Jim, and Christine for the concept; it’s been a joy! I might even have to do more of them, as I feel that I haven’t even scratched the surface. I think I just might….

Outdoor Wonders
The air smells so fresh
The grass wiggles in the wind
And birds chirp all day

The Jungle
The elephant stomps
The king of the jungle roars
The zoo’s a wild place!

Two People
I love my Mama
I love her so very much
She takes care of us
———-
I love my Papa
He makes me laugh all the time
He’s the very best
100 Words: Generation
She was a small woman standing at four foot one,
Her teeth were strong, as was her endurance of life.
Her daughter was the eldest of all her children,
She learned about life early, taking care of everything and everyone.
Firsborn grandchild was a girl whose only resemblance was in stature,
She’d only have one child expelled from her loins.
This child, the first great-grandchild, another girl,
One that would go on to have four babies of her own.
Four strong woman of four generations, within one family;
Women that are all so different, and yet all the same.
