“Not giving up”

Nature is rather amazing sometimes!

Hope Springs Eternal*

After a very cold and snowy end to January, we suddenly had thaw again this weekend. Nature seems as eager as I to just skip the winter month of February and go straight on to March.

*The title refers to the famous quote by Alexander Pope:

Hope springs eternal in the human breast;

Man never is, but always to be blessed:

The soul, uneasy and confined from home,

Rests and expatiates in a life to come.

Macro Monday: Feather and Reeds

“Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.”
― Emily Dickinson

It’s Macro Monday at Lisa’s Chaos again.

Lisa has been keeping this meme going for 4 years now!
Congratulations to her, and Happy Monday to everyone!
