Hope

"Hope is that thing inside us that insists, despite all the evidence to the contrary, that something better awaits us if we have the courage to reach for it and to work for it and to fight for it."

-Barack Obama

Hoping you all are having a good weekend! I'm thinking about how each day we have an opportunity to keep growing and learning.  As we approach President's Day, I wanted to channel some of President Obama's thoughts on hope.  To keep evolving and striving for better lives takes courage, work and determination - courage to set goals, work to achieve those goals and determination to continually fight to maintain those goals.  Hope is also found in the actions that represent the kind of person we aspire to become, to put actions and experiences in our day that piece by piece create the life and world we want to have.
