A Revolution Called Hope

So, I met the most amazing women at BlogHer '08. One of them is a tiny little powerhouse named Square Girl who had a dream about spreading hope throughout the land. Her dream has grown and I would like to propogate it some more right here!

Here's the deal...

One day, she just decides to start leaving notes... everywhere... random places... What did the notes say? Oh just sweet little things like "Go slowly and enjoy the journey" or "Believe in your own happiness" or, my favorite, "No one can take the place of you." Now picture your worst day in the last month. One of those days that you just wanted to throw something. Or yell. Or DID throw something WHILE you were yelling. Now pretend you found one of these notes on your windshield right as you were ready to give up on your day getting any better. God, can you imagine the impact a simple note might have had? How much nicer might you have been to the teller, or the barista, or your kids?

I've listed a few suggested notes in my latest poll. Pick your favorite. But don't stop there. Write it down on a slip of paper. A simple 4x4 piece of paper. Then, go against all your feelings of doubt and put it somewhere for someone to find. Leave the rest up to love.

I hope you have a great week and I hope you spread the hope.
