growing hope.

i'm not sure what it is about spring that fills me with so much hope. 
but lately i've been thinking. 
what is the balance between staying hopeful and not being disappointed?
i often feel that the more i get my hopes up, the harder it is i fall.  [and cry.]

somehow this little tiny plant in my windowsill reminds me of my need for hope.
of all the goodness in the world.
that even great, beautiful things come from small, tiny beginnings.
my little plant is reminding me how to grow hope.

  1. These pictures are beautiful. I have thought a lot about that same thing too, but have yet to come to a conclusion either ha so I'm no help.

  2. Oh my goodness, this is something I have REALLY been struggling with lately too. Sometimes I feel like it'd be easier to be grumpy and full of despair because then I would have less of a let down... but then I remember that it's always a good choice to have faith and hope. Thanks for the reminder :)
