It’s elusive, but needed. Without it, it’s hard to move forward, hard to function. There’s a heavy feeling then darkness, despair. But when we are knocked down, hope lifts us up to try again, to reach again, to be beyond ourselves and our own limits. Hope inspires us to new heights. It fills us with light. It teaches us to look for better days. Hope is everything.
