About this episode
I’m glad you’re here. I know I say that every time, but I want you to really hear it because I am really glad you’re here, listening and sharing hope with me. I started this back in January and there’s no way that I’d still be doing this if I hadn’t received encouragement and support from you, the people who are listening. I truly appreciate you for helping me see that being hopeful isn’t pie-in-the-sky wishful thinking. I’ve learned and now experience hope as a practice. The daily steps we all take in an effort to bring some light and hope and positive energy into the world is what makes it all work. Each week, I sit down and think about what I want to say, or more commonly sit down and begin typing and hope that something worth sharing shows up. Some weeks it’s easier than others, but the practice of thinking about, writing about, and recording messages of hope and encouragement is why, despite crazy, and unpredictable events in the day to day world I still feel optimistic. I believe that things can get better.
