What does HOPE mean to you?
For me, Hope means that I can get through anything or that I can believe that anything can change.

Hmmm…Holding on to potential energy…
For me, I think that hope means having belief in things that are a little more out of reach than normal but still trusting that they can happen. I think that hope and faith go hand in hand, for without faith, I will not have the sort of fuel to keep my hope alive. It’s like running a car with no gas- if my foundation is altered or broken, how will I still believe in a positive outcome?
Great, thanks Ladies!
I know this post is a little older, but on occasion I like to revisit the old ones to sort of reflect on my opinions before and compare them to now. If I were to describe what hope means to me in this very second, I would just picture the word “unstuck”. By having hope, I am able to move on from any circumstance no matter what it is and not get wrapped into the content of whatever my situation is.
