Hope Revolution

It’s a feel good thing.

It’s a small word, but one with a lot of energy, strength and heart.

I ran across this web site yesterday: hopeREVO.com run by Krystyn Heide:

hopeREVO began one evening when I decided to hide encouraging notes around New York City. This simple act inspired other people who heard about it to do the same in their cities. Days later, my inbox was flooded with messages from people spreading hope in their communities, after reading about it on my blog, and as it propagated through the Internet on other blogs. So, I decided to develop this website to start a hope revolution.

I hope you’ll continue to be part of our revolution as it evolves.

and here is the corresponding flickr pool: hopeREVO

I like this idea. Maybe in the act of spreading a little hope, I can begin to find my own.

The story of the spark behind Krystyn’s idea is recounted here: Jen Lemen: Love Notes to a City

Which brought me to: Titration’s Guerrilla Art Adventure

and then this: Keri Smith: how to be a guerrilla artist

So many awesome things to do….
