F-Stop Frenzy Photo Challenge Entry: HOPE

This is the first time I have ever entered a photo challenge.  I recently came across a gem of a blog, F-Stop Frenzy.  I have learned from and been inspired by the ladies there, and thought I would take the challenge.


The photo I am choosing to represent my version of HOPE is a photo of my daughter, Lily.  Why this photo represents hope to me, is that it symbolizes chasing one's dreams.  I had a dream.  I sang and wrote music as a young girl and a younger woman.  The guitar in the image represents my dream. MY HOPE IS THAT MY DAUGHTER WILL CHASE HER OWN DREAMS, WHATEVER THEY MAY BE.  Whether it's music, art, medicine, it doesn't matter...I just hope that precious little spirit will chase her dreams with passion, with determination, with courage...with HOPE.
