Francis by Patrick J. Marrin for December 28, 2017

I hope his hope comes to pass, although I also see little cause for optimism.

I’m going to hang this one on the wall!

I posted this before: “Darkness cannot drive out darkness. Only the light can do that. Hate cannot drive out hate. Only love can do that.” Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

I learned a lot of lessons from flying.

When looked at from 30,000 feet at night, an individual porch light is invisible. But when combined with 30,000 other porch lights collectively, an entire city of light emerges.

Is your porch light on?

Nice.

Hope .. and prayer.

It’s been hard to cope during the year of the grope.

Where there’s life, there’s hope. Where there’s hope, there’s Crosby.

Hope isn’t a good star to use, having a concrete reason to live is.
