✨ There is always hope ✨ 🌈🥰
Despite the grey sky, the air was warm and welcoming today.
I wandered to one of my favourite city spots for lunch, and to my delight, a banner with the word hope was hanging there, almost as if waiting to be noticed.
It felt like a sign. Today is a good day. I can sense brighter days are coming … deep down, I feel it in my bones.
And then, as if the universe wanted to underline the message, I found myself sitting on the very bench where I spent a special morning back in 2019, in the company of a pretty amazing person. The memories came rushing back, bringing smiles and warmth to my heart. ❤️
Hope is always with us 🙏
Tomorrow also marks the start of Action for Happiness’ Optimistic October Calendar. Optimism and hope, to me, are not about waiting for “one day” to come, but about taking action today. This is why I connect so deeply with Hope Action Theory – it reminds us that hope is not passive, it’s a practice. It’s about combining optimism with action, trusting the journey, and moving forward step by step, even when the outcome is uncertain.
Sitting on that bench again today, I was reminded: the past may hold cherished memories, but the future is always open to possibility — including doors that once may have seemed closed, but are waiting to be opened once again.
🌱 Hold the future in an open hand 🌱
🚪 What “doors” are you ready to open in your own journey?
