What is hope? According to Webster’s dictionary hope is defined as: ‘a feeling that what is wanted is likely to happen; desire accompanied by expectation…’ There are many people in this world today that are going through times of hopelessness and allow this to take them into a time of despair. Many have found difficult times, whether it be financially, physically, facing the unknown about certain situations such as employment, sickness and/or impending death of a loved one, etc., and it affects them health wise, mentally, and socially. Not only does it affect them, but it affects the ones around them and the ones they depend on most such as family and close friends. 09/17/2024 12:25 PM
