Talking about our dreams out loud can be a scary thing. In the spirit of my new album Connections, and of doing brave things in order to find connection with one another, I asked my community to send me their most dearly-held hopes.

What would yours be? The thing that you so deeply hope for that you may have never shared it out loud with anyone. Or when you did share it with someone, your palms got sweaty and there was a lump in your throat and you might have even wished you could have sucked the words back into your mouth after you'd spoken them. THAT hope. THAT dream. You know the one I'm talking about.

I wondered: What if we bravely, collectively shared our hopes and dreams with one another … would we bring hope and courage to other dreamers who see them? Would we open up conversations that lead to connection among those who see them? Would we give strength to our collective hopes?

Dozens of people mailed me letters containing their most dearly-held hopes and dreams. And that's the bouquet of bravery and inspiration you see here.

Love to all the dreamers -- shannon
