How do you help a person who no longer embraces hope?

How do you help a person who no longer embraces hope?

For someone under 30 years old, you can use personal role modeling.

For someone over 30, i submit that you can’t change them.

Thirty isn’t the magic number, but i believe it’s close.

At some point in life we convince ourselves we are either victims or victors.

And from there we live a self-fulfilling prophecy.

Teach, it changes everything

Teaching slogan
We are either part of the solution or part of the problem.

 

Song lyrics that degrade the relationship between two “different” races do nothing but perpetuate old, inaccurate, or presently untrue stereotypes.

When every song on an album contains explicit lyrics, and the songs promote how one race is responsible for the suppression of another race, are the words valid?

We talked last night about the paradox of whites holding blacks in slavery. And how many still hold onto this as a battle cry.

i asked my companion, “Why isn’t anyone celebrating that whites set the slaves free?”

While one group of “whites” condoned slavery, another group of “whites” fought and died to set them free.

What if the songs spoke of gratitude instead of hatred and disgust?

Will our spirit fade or can we protect it?

Winding river to the ocean
Water doesn’t take the quickest way (a shortcut), it takes the easiest way. It’s a human condition to seek the easiest way – easy and vibrant are generally mutually exclusive.

 

Will our spirit fade or can we protect it as we reach our final years?

It’s important to remember that many of us will not be aware we are in our final years.

Perhaps this realization isn’t crystal clear until we enter a Nursing home – a place from which you remain until you die.

On April Fool’s Day 2009, jeff noel began writing five daily, differently-themed blogs (on five different sites). It was to be a 100-day self-imposed “writer’s bootcamp”, in preparation for writing his first book. He hasn’t missed a single day since.

Dear hope,

Faith, hope, and love and the greatest of these is love.

So what’s second greatest, faith or hope?
