HOPE
Category General
According to Wikipedia Hope is "an optimistic state of mind that is based on an expectation of positive outcomes concerning events and circumstances in one life or the world at large."
Coming into a New Year gives one a chance to start over and leave behind the sorrows and challenges of the year gone by. It also allows one to set new targets and make new plans. The past two years were emotionally draining and tough which causes many people to have an attitude of 'let's wait and see how it goes.' Unfortunately, this is detrimental to the achievement of success.
It has been said that the three most important things in life are Faith, Hope, and Love. Consider that without Hope there cannot be Faith, and without Hope, there cannot be Love. The lack of Hope leads to depression, even suicide. Hope then, more than anything else, forms the cornerstone of humanity.
I am a strong believer that one carves out your path in life through positive affirmation, taking appropriate action, and being consistent in your daily efforts to make things happen - that is how I've been living my life, until now. The pandemic years, however, gave rise to the omnipotence of Hope; and I have learned that it is indeed Hope that we will help us make it through. Hope that today will be better gets one out of the bed to tackle the new day, it is Hope that lets us set targets for the New Year; it is Hope that implores Faith that all things are possible.
You and I are here because of Hope. We have the courage to set goals for 2022, to work restlessly to achieve those goals; we visualise a better tomorrow and cherish the desire with anticipation of the realisation of our dreams in time to come.
Here's wishing you the abundance power of Hope, and Faith, and Love in 2022.
