Hope Remains
I was thinking about my friends who are in the midst of dealing with so much in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy. I can hardly imagine facing that kind of devastation, and trying, in the midst of it, to provide for and to take care of my family and neighbors.
I’m sure that many have found strength they didn’t know they had.
I’m praying hope for all of them.
To find out other ways you can help go to:
Daddy Knows Less Blog for photos of the aftermath and suggestions for local relief efforts to join in on.
Children’s Hunger Fund Hurricane Sandy Response to donate either funds or bulk supplies. I’ve known CHF President Dave Phillips for years. This is an integrity filled organization that gets 99% of what it takes in back out to those in need.
Nearly all of us have more than we need. Please consider giving some of it to those who have lost everything.
Thank you in advance for your caring and compassion.

Hope
In the rain and the rainbow
Singing and sleeping
The dew and the grass
In the twinkling of stars
Laughter of children
The smile of age
In the leaves of the trees
Sunshine
The coming dawn
In the music of springtime
Aroma of sweetness
The hidden blush of the bloom
In the beat of a heart
Breath of a hero
The eyes of love
