Good morning everyone,
Here is a beautiful poem of hope by Selasie Bulmuo that I would like to share. All of us go through struggles, but it takes courage to renew your hope by painting a picture of a better day.

My fate of yesterday

For a minute, I thought you were sick? Is this person writing this fighting a disease or something? I hope she is hopeful.

Hi,
Hope you are fine. No, I am not sick, but I always take the month of December to wind down and the month of January in the New Year to do my own planning so that I know in which direction I am headed.
This poem is from a woman who is very healthy. She writes poems of hope, about staying persistent, and never giving up that greatly encourage me.
Hope you have a prosperous New Year and receive many readers for your blog and thank you for inquiring about me.
Ciao,
Patricia
