Just some thoughts...

Every day, as I write Poetiquejustis, I pray it will be a blessing to someone.
Today, I hope it is you.

A Future and a Hope

 

A whole stack of memories never equals one little hope.
Charles M. Schulz


Marvin Hamlisch called them
"misty water colored memories
of the way we were. "
Memories -
good
and bad
Have only one thing in common
They dwell in the past
And hope never visits there.
Hope, my friend,
 is in the here and now.
That is worth remembering
and that's poetiquejustis
 For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD,
 "plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11
