Hope is learnt from what was experienced, endured and then written about in the Scriptures. These are our teachers giving us encouragement. All scripture is given by inspiration of God. Put your hope in His unfailing love.
Romans15:4 2Timothy 3:16 Psalm 147:11
Chosen for what they have in common.
White on green in various patterns.
All unique.

There is an expression to
“air one’s lungs”.
It means to use profane language.

“Those trees are your lungs. The earth recycles as your body. The rivers recycle as your circulation. The air is your breath. So what do we call the environment?”
Chopra Deepak
“What oxygen is to the lungs, such is hope to the meaning of life.”
Emil Brunner Swiss theologian.

Cain and Abel,
Lords and ladies.

I think this leaf looks more like those xrays than the plant named pulmonaria.
It is so smooth as the other is hairy and even has light patches like the xray where Dad pointed our that smoking had caused a patchy problem.
“Breathe in deeply to bring your mind home to your body.”
Thich Nhat Hanh
“Trust is as necessary to a happy, healthy relationship as air is to lungs. With it a relationship can survive almost anything. Without it almost nothing.”

worms as I worked.

I will soon put them back in the soil.
Thank you for reading this post. Take time to breathe.
