This is the time to:
show people how much you love them.
show people how willing you are to stand by them.
show people how good you are.
show people your patience.
show people your vulnerability.
show people your humanity.
hold on to your dignity.
honour the dignity in others.
lift.
Because this is what fosters hope.
It’s not words.
It’s your actions.
It’s not promises.
It’s your decisions.
It’s not ideas
It’s our doing which becomes our being.
We can always remember the love we are capable of.
Because hope matters, and speaking it, branding it, preaching it, and buying it or selling it is not how we believe it.
we gotta live it.
we gotta live it to give it.
This is the story of us.
Now is always the time to live it so we can give it.
Hope is living with a heart which is always big enough to share…
