This is a great article, thank-you so much! There are so many wonderful quotes from here, this one for example: "That’s when we might need hope—but while hope might spring eternal, it also requires intentional, conscious cultivation, so that it can be there when you need it." I have designed a program called "The Hope Accelerator" that is exactly along those lines...I would add that hope is a cognitive construct, an emotion, a process AND hope is a MINDSET. We will have hope when we need it only when it becomes a part of our being. That requires intention, agency, practice and support. I love the idea of how we need community for hope- thank-you Dr. Hass!
