The Power of Hope

I don't think a day goes by that I don't exercise some hope in my life about something. Whether it's thoughts of the future, my kids or a friend who is struggling, hope seems to be the wind in my sails. As a person who has struggled with disappointment in the past, I have learned to acquire a list of hopeful things in my mind. I use them often when meditating, or helping someone. The catalyst of hope has helped me out of many situations and I need to put some energy into how I can carry this more into conversations with people on a daily basis. Like the oncoming Spring, the hope of a brighter future lies within the very words that we use.
