Hoping

We're ever hopeful, hope being key to meeting lots of mental demands, something to aspire to or wish for. You may hope for something for just you, you may hope for the planet, plenty of mental health problems stem from actual issues in the our environment

I'm hopeful for me, I'm learning better with dealing with children already. I hope that patience comes to me, and that my teaching pays off.

I'm also hopeful for a change of government in the UK, the current corrupt cronies are hopelessly inept too and a return to a caring state is long overdue

I'm less optimistic about the climate this year, but hopeful we'll see signs of progress. Shareholder rebellions, ex-colonies sueing first world for climate reparations, and governments investing more responsibly. We shall see. This one often plays on my mind, a future for us all is a big burden to carry, but I do joke to people I work to save the world at the $dayjob

Hope is hard!! I worry a lot about the future! Personally, I hope for success this year with hospital appointments and if not I have some decisions to make on what happens next!! This is where I know I am quite resilient but can only hope I continue to be. I hope my dad continues to keep well after all his cancer treatment. Although all clear a couple of years now, I worry about his mental health as his life has changed quite a bit.

Hoping for an end to the wars in ukraine and gaza, as well as whats happening in yemen. Seeing some of the images on the news is really upsetting.

Also hope for the people that matter to start caring about what they are doing to our world! We try to do what we can but we aren't having the impact thats needed!!! I'll keep doing what I can to spread the word!!!
