Hopelessness has the ability to invade the soul like an emotional cancer. Everywhere we turn we are confronted with what seem to be mountain-sized obstacles that keep us from moving forward. The feeling of hopelessness can take hold of any one of us, no matter the age, marital status, or what is in our bank account. Many people have given up hope in relationships because of the failed attempts to connect with other people time and time again. Others have given up hope due to their negative habits appearing to be out of control with no way of taming them on the horizon. And then there are those that see the events of the world we live in today and cannot help but think we are all heading towards an inevitable cosmic disaster. “Having Hope In A World Without Hope” provides a much needed light in the darkness for an increasingly pessimistic world. Hopelessness does not have to be our mental and emotional state. We can rise above the cloud of this all too familiar emotion that seeks to invade our soul and find joy and purpose in the midst of the challenges the world presents to us. Set aside some time for yourself, brew a cup of coffee, sit in your most comfortable chair and let's begin the journey to discovering a life full of joy and more importantly, hope.
