    Faith and Hope

    I once heard this beautiful explanation about the difference between faith and hope. They seem to be the same thing, but when you really sit down and think about it.....

    Hope is.....knowing that there will music tomorrow;
    Faith is...being able to dance to that music today!

    Thank you HCMA for giving hope to a new member of this "club"...through your stories, advice and compassion...and,even though it may seem strange to say...the love that I feel everytime I log on.
    Please keep me in your prayers as I have a new battery of tests beginning Wednesday, 2/5/03.

    I wish you enough.......
