Hope

Last month I wrote about fear. Over the last couple of days, the opposite side of that coin, hope, has been much more on my mind. We can see the results of losing hope very easily, and it is truly an unhealthy person who has lost all hope, but that's not what I've been focusing on.

Hope hides in plain sight around us every day, and I don't want to miss it. It is possibly THE fundamental building block in mental wellness, and it transcends our physical existence. It allows us to be more than we are. You can tell the people who have hope apart from the people who don't, although many might think I'm being a little subjective. There's much more to this subject, but I will come back to it later.
