IN CLOSING
“Hope becomes easier to recognize when we learn that it rarely comes from outside us. More often it comes from within, emerging from that place where our deepest longings meet our willingness to make them real. In that place hope sheds its disguises, moving with grace and freedom to point us beyond our delusions toward the landscape of possibility.
