Lovely piece. And I'm so struck by each of the pointers, but especially #1 - there's always reason for hope. What strikes me about it is not just that there's not only "reason for," it's a mandate really. Not having hope is the same as despair, and despair accelerates despondency and death.
Brilliant. I am sending this to a couple people that need to hear this.
Thanks so much, Wendy!

Thanks, Kernan. That’s such a critical point — the great necessity of hope.
