When you think about the word hope, what does it mean to you? I mean, I know some girls name hope, but that's not what it really means to me. Now, the definition of it, according to the Oxford Language Dictionary, is hope is an optimistic state of mind that is based on the expectation of positive outcomes. It can also be defined as the power to believe that anything is possible. Bowl

You're also educating other people while you work on yourself. So all in all, I'm going to give that as one of my short definitions of hope. Hope really doesn't have a face, but it definitely has a feeling. And hope can brighten up the world. Bye

And I'm really glad for everybody that's on here, because you all give me hope. I mean, I have hope in other things, too, but I just thought we needed a reminder that hope is crucial. It's important. And there are different ways that we show hope every single day. And I hope that helped. A pun intended

But I'm just hoping that whatever is happening, it's for the greater good. It's for my greater good. And then I just go from there. But I also love that picture that you chose for this swell as well

And you said it's just things that you can't see that you're hoping for and wishing for and wondering if they're going to work out and willing it to work out. I love that about you. It exudes strength and power and the ability to be patient and let things happen instead of being anxious and worried. So thank you so much

You. Hey sis. This is a great topic. I would categorize myself as one who has generalized hope because I don't let one negative situation skew my perception of the entire day or the entire situation. Because things happen. Unexpected things happen, challenging things happen, offensive things happen during the course of a day. But that doesn't mark the day. So I don't say that I had a bad day

So this hope is something which really makes you feel positive, makes you feel motivated, and also helps you to not give up on the things which you are trying to hold very, very tightly

I agree with that. It's hope that things are going to get better, and it's our brain telling us that we should hold on to something positive, even though the situation might be truly negative that's going forth. I do agree with you, and I thank you so much for giving me your idea of what hope is for you. I really appreciate that. Thank you

Hope is so essential and it's so important. And I'm finding that out more and more evelyn day, because if you're hopeful, you have faith. Faith brings it to the reality. But you got to have hope in order to have faith. And so I'm just very grateful that everybody is sharing to me what their walk is in regards to hope. And I love it. I'm sorry for getting back to you so late, but thank you so much
