Renewal of Hope
A difficult task at times
Times of natural disaster
Floods, fire, tornadoes
Hope is tested
Even unthinkable
Suddenly you realize
Tomorrow is here
The dawn of a new day
The sun kissing your face
Laughter, smiles and hope returning
Knowing you have survived, hope renews

As always, thank you for reading! 
The words thank you come with so much gratitude and humility. Two words that are often overlooked and underused. I have found 10 reasons to say thank you.
10 reasons to say, thank you are:
Opening your eyes in the morning- you are able to live and see a new day
When someone holds the door open for you- it shows that there are
still courteous people out there
Receiving a compliment- the kind words may have been
just what you needed that day
Reaching into the refrigerator and finding something for
nourishment- a simple pleasure of life often taken for granted
When you really need someone to talk to and they answer the phone- you can now discuss what is on your mind and gain some valuable insight
When you have a reason to smile- life is short, relish those
moments
Having a friendly person who is willing to lend a listening ear-you can now vent and get something off your chest instead of internalizing it
When you have someone to share your life with- companionship is
very valuable and should not be taken lightly
Finding comfort in those closest to you- it is nice to have someone who can comfort you just by simply being in their presence
When you can find laughter even during those difficult times-
these are the times when laughter is the best medicine
I don’t know about you, but I can keep going with the list. How many more reasons can you come up with? Personalize the list and add to it or take some things away. Use it on a daily basis. Choose the ones that are most important to you.
As always, thank you for reading.
