Hope .....

"Consult not your fears but your hopes and your dreams 
Think not about your frustrations, but about your unfulfilled potential.
Concern yourself not with what you tried and failed in, but with what it is still possible for you to do. "
Pope John XXIII

Today's Abstract Thursday challenge is 'Hope'. It really had me digging deep. There are a few shapes in this image that may be meaningful for you - I can see a couple that I hoped would be there.
For me, Hope always brings lightness and an inner freedom of being, as opposed to heaviness and hopelessness and even despair. 

I've put another image into Extras, of what was in front of my eyes, and what inspired me. I like them both!

Thanks so much Ingeborg. What a challenge!
