#hope message

It's sickening.

However, please do not lose hope. It may sound cliché, but it's more important than ever to keep fighting. Queer folks like us will NEVER disappear. We've been around the bloc for a long time now and we won't be pushed away. They can demean, demonise and insult us all they want, but we'll stay here. Because in the end, true passion and love will be victorious over hate and despair. That's how it always has been.

Be kind to one another. Stick together. Learn to love and don't let hate and disdain overtake you. Everything is fluid, nothing is static and I'll promise you that we'll rise again. Like a phoenix from the ashes, we'll rise and spread our wings, the colors of the light shining through them and chasing away the darkness and-

...heh. Sorry that was a bit too poetic eh? Sorry. Ahem.

We will heal the world.

Don't give up loving.

Don't give up hope.

Don't give up friendship.

Don't give up the world.

And most importantly,

Don't give up on yourself.

Tread carefully. The path may be full of thorns, but I'll believe in us all. I believe in you.

Okay, so this is a bit of a weird post, I know. But hear me out.

A thing that people do not get about hope, is that they think hope is blind optimism. It's not. Hope is when you know things are bleak and you know things are bad, but you move forward anyway. Because you will feel bad either way. It's just a matter of, what is worse.

Either you will feel bad, for just facing the despair and letting it overwhelm you.

Or

You will feel bad, because you try to make things better. Bit by bit.

Look, I get it. The world right now is in a horrible state. From the US, to the middle East, to the rest of the world....Things are bleak, very bleak. And I do not blame anyone, for feeling awful and depressed and helpless, about all of this.

And yet...I can't help, but refuse to give up.

Sure, things will be bad and we'll head towards a dark storm. But....once we cross through that dark valley of tears...we will reach the other side.

Never ever, give into nihilism.

You can do this.

We can do this.

Because

We are strong. Especially together. ^^

Do not despair.

Acknowledge the despair, but don't let it overwhelm you.

We will heal the world.

HOPE ; my One little Word for 2018 . Ali Edwards class,

Dear wonderfull women, often i read stories of women who no longer believe in love. Were betrayed or they feel betrayed in love they have given and not received.

The most frequent phrases. ... love does not exist, love only does suffer, love makes you a slave, love disappoints you, I don't need your love .... And many others.

First let me say that I have profound respect for those who suffer, for the sake or for anything else.Suffering is suffering, even when they are little things ... which pass quickly.

Love is something that must be discovered within themselves, through what there is outside of us. People you may also disappoint, but you ... not to disappoint each other. Often I hear say .... I feel drained by the love I gave to those who didn't loved me. The empty ...isn't the love we have given and don't have any more ... The empty is the love that we haven't received ....

When you really love without expecting anything in return, you were never empty, in fact ... you're fuller than before ... of love. It's normal, legitimate and beneficial that we want to receive love ... But let's not blame anyone there know love ... There is nothing if not to believe that we should not love ... it's kinda childish this way of responding to the disappointments of love.

But it's what they do in so many, both men and women. Love is not a business, I give you this and you give me that ... When we were kids was normal to think so ... True love is what leaves the way free to be as is. ... you too can be able if you want. This does not mean to mistreat and. .. After a heavy suffering for the love faded, my nephew of only 8 years said me ...wake up.. from you're on, in the world there are many little fish ... about 3 billion, and you want to own one?
