I believe that everybody needs a little bit of hope in their lives.
When I think of the word it brings me back to the Relay For Life event that is held during the summer to remember those who have survived or died from cancer. The Relay For Life symbolizes hope in so many ways. One very obvious thing is the fact that they take luminaries and spell out the word HOPE in big letters in the grandstands so that everyone who drives by or walks by can see it. People who have cancer hope and hope everyday that their sickness will end and that they will be healthy again. Family members of people who have cancer HOPE for the same exact thing to happen!
Walking around and seeing all of the luminaries lit up with someone's name on it is very powerful! You never really know how many people have to hope and pray to get better until you go to something like the Relay For Life.
