Voice of Hope #4

Amanda, Lake Country BC, November 12th, 2020

I do have hope. I have hope for our planet.  I have hope for humanity. 

I believe that there is a self-sustaining interconnectedness of life that calls for our attention when it is out of balance. I think we are in a time where everyone of us is being called to pay attention.

The world is out of balance. Humanity is out of balance. I have hope though because I believe that deep in our hearts we all have the same longing. 

We all long to live in peace.  We all long to have access to clean air and clean water.  We all long to be safe and to live freely.  We all want to love and be loved. 

 That is our shared humanity. This collective experience manifests differently for each person on the outside, and that is the beautiful mosaic of life, and yet ultimately our humanity is connected as one. 

This pandemic has forced us to slow down. It has interrupted our habits of living. Our travel, our businesses, and even our education systems have been disrupted. This has created an opportunity for us to reflect on our values and our priorities. 

 I think we may emerge from this time living simpler lives. I think we may emerge living more harmoniously with each other and with the planet. 

 I have faith in humanity. I have faith in the interconnectedness of life…

 And this gives me hope.

Voice of Hope #3

Bobbie, Lake Country, BC, November 12th, 2020

It is my hope that these difficult times will unite us, rather than divide us. That our communities, both locally and globally will come together for a common goal. That goal...is unity. We all see the world through a different lens, shaped by our own unique experiences. These variances...when appreciated, weave the fabric of unity. If we show gratitude toward one another, we can start to shift our collective consciousness.

Being grateful brings about feelings of positivity and changes our vibrational energy. The essence of gratitude, leaves space for hope. I encourage you, to spread kindness during these challenging times. Even the small things, have a ripple effect. We can still hold the door for a stranger and remain six feet apart.

We can still see a person’s smile in their eyes...even while wearing a mask. And even a muffled greeting can brighten someones day. Stay human. Spread love and light. And truly see one another, because the whole universe resides within each of us. We can all be the voice of hope!
