More Thoughts On Hope

Submitted by Dan_Zach on Wed, 11/18/2009 - 3:56pm.

It seems to me that hope is about movement. In the same way that nostalgia is about a backward glance, hope pulls us forward. The power of hope is about change, something better that is in front of us. This movement forward is essential to our well being. If we stop, we stagnate.

A Conversation About Hope

Submitted by Dan_Zach on Wed, 11/04/2009 - 7:37am.

As I sit down to write about hope, I feel a little bit overwhelmed. Hope is one of those intangibles. It's something we can't live without but at the same time we can't quite put our finger on. It's not really a feeling, but it's not entirely a decision or act of will either. It exists somewhere in the middle. Somewhere in the human fiber that is both essential but yet undefinable.
