Time for a Chaplain-type question: Where do YOU find hope? What works for you?

I find hope in helping others, seeing the burden lifted from others gives me hope that they will do the same for others.

My hope springs from the idea that people will eventually do the right thing.

I find hope in kindness of others. So many people have become too selfish and too ungrateful for the things and people they have in their life. A single act of kindness can turn the day around for someone, especially if it's unexpected.

Hope the last emotion to come out of Pandora's box if you believe in Greek Methology. I find it everyday by reflection.

I find hope in the strength that Christ gives me and the inherent goodness in others finding their way through the world, One Team - One Fight!

I find hope through reading the Bible, through prayer, and through church!

Everyday I wake up. That's how/why I find hope. I believe in god because without him, I'd be 6 feet under right now. So I am very grateful for each and everyday im alive.

I can not help but think of Mr. Jim Carrey during his commencement speech at the MUM graduation when it comes to this question. I will preface with I do have faith in religion, never the less,
"Oh, and why not take a chance on faith as well? Take a chance on faith — not religion, but faith. Not hope, but faith. I don’t believe in hope. Hope is a beggar. Hope walks through the fire. Faith leaps over it."
I have post a link to the whole speech below. I have read it and watch it multiple times may it spark faith in some of you out there.

I find hope in my family especially my grandchildren and through my fellow colleagues at Victory for Veterans. Find it wherever you can that makes you feel comfortable.
