No hope..think again!..

"Assume you have no hope. If you have no hope, you have nothing. If you have nothing, there is nothing holding you back. If there is nothing holding you back, there is nothing stopping you. If there is nothing stopping you, there is nothing saying you cant. If there is nothing saying you cant, there must be something saying you can. If there is something saying you can, you can do anything. If you can do anything, you can dream. If you can dream, you can hope. Therefore, there is always hope. There is always hope."

GREAT message Mal66!!!!!!!!!!!!

Many of us can't see past the 'negative'...

I have SO much negative in my life... But today I 'envisaged' a glimpse of positive!


That single 'moment' (of talking to someone today) gave me a minute 'experience' of pleasure/hope....

It's hard to hope when you can't see a future. I don't look forward to anything. It's difficult to dream when I don't see a future but there is one thing. What I do have is the present moment. One breath at a time. I don't have to go to the past or future. It's not easy by any means but it is a way to be. Thanks for your discussion.

    Many of you know Mr K told me to "shut your mouth" in March 2025 when we took a road trip to Alpena Michigan. Since that time, we have had lots of ups and downs but I have never intentionally hurt Mr K in anyway. And when we first started dating in 2024 he let me know, although he is an engineer by degree, he has an extremely low EQ.  Overall, he is ok (not off the charts nice like other guys in...
