ExampleHope is…Hope is a tissue,wiping away your problems and fears.Hope is a bright sun ray,warming your heart and soul.Hope is a tattered teddy bear,hugging your tears, making themtears of joy.

Hope is a cozy, warm blanket,protecting you from the problems ofthe world.Hope is a striving flowerin a dried and salty ground.
LaShonda Cuffie & Stephanie Schotsch ECED 4300-B
Hope is a butterfly,fluttering around a garden of weeds.Hope is a twinkling star in a sky of black clouds.
