Hope is such a simple, sweet word. We hear it so often. It conjures up warm feelings, melancholy, certainly some level of anticipation. And yet, as words go, it is tough to define, probably because it means something unique to almost everyone. Expressions prompt us to make it easier: “Just have a little hope.” “Don’t give up hope.” “Hope springs eternal.” But those expressions don’t generally get the job done. We each must define what hope means to us and how we go about capturing this elusive hummingbird in our lives.
