I always have hope! In fact, I'm high on hope! But, I still feel like it will take 100 tomorrows to fix today! I feel so good talking to you here! There are so many things that I just can't share with others! I'm even afraid of my own shadow! I try so very hard not to let the past creep in to today! But, it's everywhere! Most days, I just want to give up! It wasn't too long ago, that every night before I went to bed, I actually prayed for death! I haven't really slept in months! I lay down, close my eyes, and sometimes only 10 minutes of sleep! I don't even remember my dreams anymore! What do you suppose that means? I can't figure it out! And, I'm losing hope more and more! These are the possessions I hold dear to keep me going, my 3 children and my education!

Dear Dee Dee,

The fact that you are here at Zaadz, a community of hope, and that you are part of the Sacred Walk pod, among many other things, exhibits the hope that is alive in you.
It may take all you have right now to share with us how hard these days are, but I applaud your strength to take your energy and to place in here in words so that we can offer our support and help us kindle your hope, which still is alive within you.

There is no greater gift than to receive hope. Allow yourself to open up to the hope that is held here for you. It is also hopeful that you are able to hold dear to your children and to your education. This is an act of hope, itself. To recognize the people and things that bring meaning and love into your life.

I send my prayers and cyber hugs to you and know that you willfind the strength within the days ahead to see feel the healing taking place in your life.

Allow yourself to dream of what you are longing to manifest in your life and believe that you will manifest your heart’s desires as time unfolds. Keep the faith sister, and may the long time sun shine upon you, all love surround you, and the light guide your way on!

Blessed Be!

Elena

Hope is everywhere and in everything. Anything we believe can be seen, because we want to see it so badly. Seeing/Finding the silver lining in every situation and praising it makes life so much easier emotionally. Coping with a bad situation becomes effortless when you know that it's for the best.
There are certain situations in life that seem hopeless like our current state of political affairs. I have to really try hard to see that there are still people out there that wants what's best for the greater good. Zaadz helps me out ALOT!

Dear DeeDee,

Your right there is always hope that tomorrow will bring better circumstances but often in our hope lies the dispare of disbelief. Just as you mentioned that you feel it will take 100 tomorrows to fix today shows your disbelief. Don't live by what your thoughts tell you life will be like because the brain only knows what it has experenced. It cannot fathom tomorrow and certainly not next week with any degree of knowing.

Come to know the you that lies within the thoughts telling you that there is hope and in this hope you won't have to wait those 100 days.. Your change can be immediately. But with this comes the responsibilty of action on our part. Such as in finding work or new work and getting rid of all the excuses we've made up to justify our failures. Before you can trust what is true you have to discover it . And that answer lies between your thoughts of dispair. Take care of keep moving forward, Gary
