"Hope is a good thing,maybe the best of things;And no good thing ever dies.Quote from "The Shawshank Redemption". So how do we feel about hope in these troubled times? I know I'm struggling and when I feel weak and weary I think about others who don't have it so good.I also try and remember when I had things very well ;And I find myself grateful for suffering hard times now. I think I am a better and stronger person for my experiences.From spoiled upper middle class home as a child to a homeless person who has walked the streets just to find a place to lay her head for the night and sometimes out of the rain,I am a stronger and better person.
