Depending on who you ask, the world’s never seen better days or we’re starting the descent into deep, apocalyptic collapse. Unless you want to prove me wrong, in which case I admit I’m not completely committed to either of these two parties either.
Every person, group of people, nation or empire suffers pains, dark moments and crises from time to time. Sometimes these are huge, larger-than-life realities, while other times they’re like a minor prick that disappears after a forgettable instant.
These are the times to remember that while we cannot change the past, we can start fresh each moment. Yes, it’s understandable and reasonable to see patterns and expect similar outcome results, but every moment is an opportunity for everything to change.
We may find ourselves in the worst situation possible. All the world may be against us. We may even hate ourselves.
Every day is a new day.
Every day holds the hope that we bring it.
We can find ourselves in the worst situation possible and yet soar like an eagle. All the world may be against us but that doesn’t mean we have to give up. We may even hate ourselves but that need not be.
We may not always be able to choose where we are or what we do, but we can always choose what we will think and feel and become.
Even in the darkest times, hope is what we make it.
