Day thirteen of my year long daily writing adventure finds me wondering about the future. I wonder about what opportunities and challenges lie ahead for me. I wonder about how individuals and families and corporate bodies (schools, places of worship, businesses, non-profit organizations, etc.) will negotiate the highs and lows in the next year. I wonder how any of us . . . ALL of us will move through the days ahead. After all of my years on this rock, I know that a complex and sometimes complicated mixture of experiences await our presence. As I ponder this I am drawn to share an anatomy of hope – a few thoughts about how Hope can help us get through whatever we face.
When I dissect Hope I find some of the following:
- Hope believes the best is possible.
- Hope envisions success.
- Hope speaks passionately.
- Hope embraces pain.
- Hope listens with compassion.
- Hope delivers on promises.
- Hope gives in times of need.
- Hope sets the stage for dialogue.
- Hope dreams for answers to the impossible.
- Hope shares burdens.
- Hope pushes us forward.
- Hope creates the courage to stand for rather than against.
- Hope never fades.
- Hope . . . Is . . .
I’ve engaged in a little dissection of Hope from my perspective. What is YOUR perspective on Hope? Write it! Speak it! Share it! Live it!
Peace!
