December theme : Choosing Hope
Our theme for services and events this month is 'Choosing Hope'. Here, we share some inspiring words of wisdom and some questions to give you food for thought.
Words of Wisdom
‘Hope is a practice, an act you can do even as you mourn, or regret, or dread. Hope is an act of trust, regardless of what the future may hold…Hope is not wishing but acting. Birthing. Planting. Getting up.’
Steve Garnaas-Holmes
‘May your choices reflect your hopes, not your fears.’
Nelson Mandela
‘Critical thinking without hope is cynicism. Hope without critical thinking is naïveté.’
Maria Popova
Questions for Reflection
