"At The Threshold Of Tomorrow" by Becky Jo Minsky (aka. Hull) copyright 1990 Through the Desert of Despair,  I have often WONDERED as I WANDERED . . . About the Beauty and the Ugliness I SEE everywhere I go. About all the Joys and Sorrows I've experienced in My Travels. I THINK and then I SIGH.  About how most people rarely KNOW . . . Just how much that what we DO and THINK  AFFECTS the World At Large. How often we can CHANGE things for the BETTER If we will only TRY. Yes, some CHANGES are only temporary,  Ephemeral at best . . .  Like a pebble tossed into a pool,  depending on the size . . . Making RIPPLES on the surface ever larger Till they reach the other side,  Maybe bouncing back a few more times until ALL is as it was Before.  Like a SHOUT into a canyon,  The VIBRANT ECHOES keep on going for awhile . .  But then eventually they all FADE.

RECOGNISE Synchronicity for What It Is. Don't fight it, let it FLOW through you. DARE TO DREAM , DARE TO REACH FOR IT, DARE TO LIVE THE DREAM. She counsels me when to CHOOSE, CHOOSE, CHOOSE NOW. SHE REMINDS ME WHO I AM AND AM NOT....

“Refuse To Despair” by Becky Jo Minsky (aka. Hull) (copyright 2007) Where does Inspiration come from? Someone once wrote… “we receive confirmation from the world around us”. We can find Inspiration wherever we go, whenever we need guidance. However, finding Inspiration is not nearly as important as listening to the message that Inspiration brings to our awareness and the effect it has upon us and the world we live in. Someone once wrote… “ We must cultivate Hope like precious flowers”. I don’t know who wrote that inspirational sentence, but I am grateful to that person for reminding me of what is important. Inspiration cultivates Hope. Why bother? Because Hope blooms between the darkness of the long "Dark Night of the Soul" and the "Dawn of a Momentous Day".
