Hope
The staff here are working on short little statements that describe who we are & what we are about. Here's your chance to let us know what you think. Get your rocks ready, but please be sure that you've got all your windows boarded on your glass house first...
Hope
While our needs be numerous at times, our very primal needs be few when considered in the grand scheme of it all. Even the basic staples of food and water seem irrelevent to survival when considered that we can exist for weeks without the first, days without the second, but most times even shorter without the following. It is as intangible as a cool summer breeze, but nearly as essential as the air that comprises such.
To gaze at the horizon that a new day brings without an expectation of fulfillment that is hope is nothing short of lethal. We walk on borrowed time when our trust in that distant glimpse is lost. After all, why should we continue to be when our reason for it no longer exists in all that we may cling?
Hope is often all that we may ever have and thankfully all that we may ever need. Without it strength dissapates, will dies and reason lays ravished. Cling to it and we continue to put one foot in front of the other, rising to greater heights and perservering in spite of circumstance rather than succumbing to them.
When we are in touch with the ideal of Hope we beccome in tune with the very essence of our being. We've been granted the desire of our hearts through it in the personage of Christ and His work of Hope eternal. Acceptence of this rights our waywardness for the present and makes priceless our future.

Even in the darkest of drunken stupors, in the purplest of hazes, in the most desperate of situations...I have always had a sense of hope.
expectation of better.
better relationships
better understanding
better realization
better.
