Hope? Is that what the feeling is a winter solstice? Hope? Hope that daylight will return? No, I don't think so. We know that daylight begins its return then. It is more of a promise. Daylight is returning, that's fact. Not observable to casual observation, but just wait a few weeks and see.
The L. K. Hanson piece below giving Ernst Bloch's take on the effect of hope on persons treats hope as an emotion. Hopelessness is a terrible thing. To have given up hope is tragic. Is a factor of our blessedness that we are people of hope. Hoping for things both large and small?
For what do you hope? How does that hope shape you?
Takk for alt,
