‟All hope abandon, ye who enter here!” ~ Dante Alighieri
Insight
Hopelessness can feel isolating, like the end of the road. But often, it is a temporary emotion. Hope emerges not as a loud declaration but often as the tiny realization that another opportunity, however small, may exist. Instead of only focusing on what feels lost or shut, look for other possibilities—unexpected ideas, connections, or solutions that become visible when you’re willing to notice them. Hope doesn’t erase struggles or guarantee answers, but it lets you step away from dead ends and search for the paths you hadn’t considered. Windows often appear where you least expect to find them.
Reflection
When was the last time a surprising opportunity appeared when things seemed stuck? How can you stay open to noticing new possibilities now?
