I am so glad that everyone is clinging on to hope. Now I understand why Obama was so successful and loved. He kept hope alive. That is one thing that so many folks believe in: HOPE.
Now that Obama is no longer in the White House, seeking hope gets harder and harder. This week was big for our nation. We found hope easily twice. Once with the Alabama special election. The other in the Force with the latest Star Wars installment.
I sat in a crowded movie theatre listening to the cheers when keepers of hope like familiar Star Wars characters appeared on screen and moments when characters wished, "May the Force be with you." I am not should why Star Wars is so deeply loved. What I do know is I felt the sense of hope everyone else did and I am grateful for it.
Inspiration can be found anywhere even at the movies. So if you are losing faith, go out to the theatre and be swept away into a galaxy far far away. My faith in hope has only grown stronger.
