Hope
We went for a walk, to Fort George Park. The sun was shining, the air was crisp. People are out walking their dogs, parents and children at the play ground. You can hear laughter and the squeak of the swings. In the distance, college aged students are playing hacki sack (spelling).
We found 'snowdrops' in the parks flower beds. I looked up the meaning for 'snowdrops'. The meaning for this little flower is Hope!
As I walk around the park, I am thinking of my mom who went to the hospital for hip surgery. She showed me a brave face, but she was scared inside, scared of the unknown. She knew that there was hope for her, to walk again with out pain, to do the things she likes with out pain…with some hope. She is resting well, ready for the challenge of physio therapy and she knows her hopes and dreams will come true.
Hope has a different meaning for each person. Hope for a sunny day. Hope for time off work. Hope to land that great job. Hope my test results are in my favour. And more.
For all those people who need hope, I see this little flower, with its challenges of the crisp air, cold and frozen ground…it appears and it grows! This little flower gives me …..hope….
What do you hope for? What are your hopes and dreams?
