"I do believe in an everyday sort of magic...the inexplicable connectedness we sometimes experience with places, people, works of art and the like; the eerie appropriateness of moments of synchronicity; the whispered voice, the hidden presence, when we think we're alone." Charles de Lint

Tiny Bits of Hope

Although I still have faith that ultimately the arc of the moral universe will bend towards justice.....on a day to day basis there are only tiny bits of hope in the news. 

In many of my Words of Encouragement kits I sent along tiny hope tags.

Once I attach a phrase to a tag...I cut it to fit and am using up the short cut-offs for just one word: hope, love, joy or peace.

I sent several of them to Dotty...and this one hangs on her husband Dave's pen holder on his desk.
And these two little cut-offs were too small to punch a hole...but big enough for a tiny hope

They live on the laps of these little replicas of Dotty's mom and dad sitting on an adorable little bench. 

And just look at that adorable itty bitty bird! 

In between things today I added this tiny hope on a tag I created for my old tag project.  Other tags can be seen here. The ring is actually kind of full...so I'm calling this project complete! 

Ending my old tag project with a tiny bit of hope from my new tag project seems just right.

  1. Way to come full circle with hope, MaryAnn!

    Can't tell you how big a lift I get each time my eye catches sight of the HOPE mini-placards my proxy parents are holding up for my benefit on my desk ❤️

    1. Full circle....yes, that's what this ended up being. And I can't tell you how much I love the whole idea of "proxy parents." Brilliant!
