In the Name of Hope

Got this from Boundless.org. I just thought I’d share it with you guys because it’s such an uplifting read. Maybe I still need to read it again– but it made me think– “How does one act in the name of hope without setting myself up for a fall?”Then again, maybe the whole point is [...]
