If we look around us, at what is happening in the world, it can be really difficult to find hope. For many of us, particularly those of us in lockdown, it can feel like our circumstances are very much determined by outside influences and we have very little control over our lives.
The truth is however, that there will always be circumstances that can steal our hope. Right now, those circumstances are similar for many of us, but really, if the pandemic was not here, it is likely that different circumstances would rob us of our hope. Lack of time, lack of money, lack of other resources. The reality is, there will always be something, that if we allow it, will steal our hope. Circumstances will always get in the way of what we hope for.
The way forward is to rise above our circumstances. To acknowledge that they exist, and then choose to move forward regardless. There is always a way. It might not be apparent to you right now, but there is always another way.
