space EditorEditor’s note: It’s easy to become disheartened in these polarizing times, with the media magnifying separateness and fear on a 24-hour basis. However, humans have not only survived darker times but have also been evolving (both physically, socially and soul-wise) over the last 50,000 years to thrive in dire conditions. Here’s an insightful article from DailyGood: Do not lose heart, we were made for these times. –Ameeta space

Active Hope

Shifting our world toward a life-sustaining society takes active hope. We need to counter the voices that say we’re not up to the task, that we’re not good enough, strong enough, or wise enough to make any difference. If we fear that the mess we’re in is too awful to look at or that we won’t be able to cope with the distress it brings up, we need to find a way through that fear.
