The Power of Hope

A wise, unknown person once said, “Hope is the bird that senses
the dawn and carefully starts to sing while it is still dark.”

…Hope – the feeling that what is wanted can be had or
that events will turn out for the best.

By Peggy Lindsey
Life changed in a blink of an eye. Our daily routines rudely jolted as we scrambled to understand the magnitude of alteration that was taking place. Although still wishing we could wake up from this bad dream, we have settled into a basic realization that nothing will return to the way things were. So, now what?

We find hope! As we acknowledge the health scares, the social unrest, the downturn of the economy, and all that we are struggling with on a personal level, it is easy to fall prey to gloom and doom. And although these obstacles may seem unyielding, the voice within us shouts, “No, we will not succumb!” Motivated by the vision of a better life for ourselves and our loved ones, we reach down deep for that belief that there is a way out and a road to happier days.

Hope! Such a simple word, yet many cling to it. And wrapped in this cloak of optimism, we draw strength, gain peace, and allow our human spirit to soar. A wise, unknown person once said, “Hope is the bird that senses the dawn and carefully starts to sing while it is still dark.” Let us strive to find the determination and the willpower to choose to see a joyful outcome!

Yes, bad stuff happens in life, but when you hold hope in your heart, there are always avenues to positive outcomes and pathways to dreams fulfilled!
