i have more hope now than i've had in a long time, perhaps.....ever. i have hope for myself. the feelings of despair, anguish, and loneliness are eroding as seeds of growth, self-awareness, fulfilment, and happiness are in the infant stage of taking root. i have hope that as i look towards the future, the actions i take in "the now" will lend its capable hand to a rich and just future. i have hope that i will take with me, these life lessons and use them for a greater purpose, a greater cause that i hope, will bring hope, to others. i hope that many years from now i will look back at this defining time in my life and not hope, but be grateful at the actions i'm taking in "the now" will do, just that.
"i hope" is, after all, an easy notion to borrow and tag along with in these tough economic time. much like my personal journey and growth, i have more hope now that i have ever had in my lifetime in my government, and most importantly in my president. i'm sure it comes as no surprise to anyone that i was an ardent supporter of President Obama. what i saw, heard, and felt on his address to congress and the world, was what i feel has been missing for sometime, a leader.
