Why write a blog?

Today I retired from education, but in my head and I am still a wide eyed little girl wanting to make a difference in the world. I still have a voice and want to continue to contribute to the betterment of society.

What is a prisoner of hope?

This post is derived from a quote in the book of Job. It reads something like this…”return to your fortress, oh prisoner of hope.” Faith was Job’s fortress as it is mine. Faith in God and goodness and love.

How does the idea of hope translate into anything anyone would want to read?

Perhaps no one will want to read it. However it is designed as an outlet to bring hope, to highlight joy, to celebrate our humanity, to discuss issues that connect us.

• Some posts may be silly
• Some posts may be serious
• Some posts may be pensive
• All posts will be hopeful

Who is your audience?

I am just going to write…without worry….without pretense. Perhaps I will have no audience.

You can join me as a fellow prisoner of hope or you can react in whatever way you choose. Freedom of choice is a hallmark of democracy. Free will is a gift of God. I hope that you choose to reason, and converse, and to foster hope.
