A World of Hope Among the Hopeless

It has been along time since I have posted much besides Workout Wednesdays and Fit Fridays but today I decided it was time.

Last night my husband got home from work and I told him I needed a long run. I needed a therapy run. A run for my soul. A run for my mind.

This morning I headed out the door. Instead of turning on my book and getting lost in someone else's world I put on some chill background music and got lost in my own world. I let my thoughts go where ever they needed with a slight hope that by the time I got back to my door I would have all the answers I needed, it didn't happen that way but I did have some thoughts that were strong and made me grateful for who I am now.

In today's world hopelessness is in abundance, we see it every where around us, we see it every time we turn on the news. I have shed many tears in the last couple of weeks for those that have succumbed to that hopelessness. Those souls that were in so much pain and so lost in the dark that they couldn't find their way out.

But we also live in a world where there is hope and love. A world where one will risk it all in order to save another. I have been heart broken that not everyone can live in this world of love and hope that I strive to raise my children in. A world I wish I would have grown in.

As I ran today I only stopped once, the tears slowing my pace as I realized what an amazing man I married. A man that I know can not only help raise my children in a world of love and hope, but he can also teach my children how to spread that hope.

The question I came home with, the one I ask all of you....how can I spread hope?
