Hope is a practice. Sometimes it's bold and forward-facing, drawing us toward what's possible. Other times it's quiet and grounding, steadying us when life feels overwhelming. Across situations and seasons, hope helps shape our inner narrative, guide our choices, and fuel our actions. It's one of the mightiest contributors to resilience and well-being we have. Yet many people equate hope with wishful thinking. Wishful thinking is passive. It is wanting something to happen without any plan or real action. It relies on chance.
