We all have our "bucket list of things we still want to accomplish---some have come to pass as the years roll by, others were trampled on because of "LIFE HAPPENING"--it sure has a way of doing that..but, if we have HOPE in our hearts, things can still take place to make our "bucket list" become smaller, little by little.  HOPE is, for me, a most powerful word--add along the word LOVE, we can still strive to accomplish anything---it is the word HOPE that things can come true easier;  with HOPE, anything is possible!  "Hope sees the invisible and achieves the impossible"...This wonderful statement is carved on a beautiful cross that Sue, a kind, thoughtful friend I met on this Care2 site, gave me---as I am writing this, I'm thinking of what all the new technology has done for us...we have computers to connect with souls of like mind and find new and wonderful friends;  before this new "age of technology", many of us had HOPE for finding love, jobs, etc., now, our "hopes" of finding, fulfilling, our "bucket lists" are possible because of technology in all its shapes and sizes---HOPE----Keep it always in your heart and keep your "bucket list" full or empty;  both are good--it is all in the perception of it   By the way, riding in beautiful balloons like these in the photo above is great; it's even got a sort of bucket, too, where you stand--just glide along slowly, gently as they do in the cool breezes above, with your life and how you live it below---"YOUR "bucket list" knows what has to be done...

Wonderful share, Juta. Hope sometimes is the only thread left in your life-line.

HOPE; it has got meaning, it has got definition, just a four letter word with millions of perceptions that live next door to our hearts. "I hope that I will be happy; I hope to enjoy freedom; I hope that I will do well in whatever the task accustomed to me". These are statements which we all utter at some time or another, throughout the day, in our thoughts; HOPE is always our partner.

Our lives have compiled a pattern, which although it is more often described as a routine, it is drawn from our “bucket list”, uploaded gradually throughout our days, but when examined methodically it grasps so many unique experiences, activities, gatherings, knowledge, education, talents, personal holdings, etc that when compared with those of others, it results in so many distinctive, out of the ordinary moments that would leave so many people breathless in just reading out the list.

Where is HOPE in all this? Hope has a major influence in all this, remember it holds a partnership with love within our hearts, within our communication with our friends, family and those we meet and share.

Hope is personalized but it is also a sharing instrument that brings out the hidden treasures in oneself and in those we believe in. HOPE embraces happiness; because High Opinion of People Enclosed is equal to FRIENDSHIP.
