what is hope tho? @tellmeyourhope - Tumblr Blog

I am fascinated with the idea of hope, the way it has been in the past and what it means now.

As a member of Gen Z in a world that is falling apart around us, I know that many of us don’t feel like we have much hope left at all. Is that true? Is hope an outdated concept that doesn’t serve our present needs, or are we just interacting with it in a different way?

I hope to use this blog both as a collection of ways people are currently talking about hope, and to facilitate new discussion on what it means to us.

Ya know, if anyone ever sees it

And eventually I might use things I find here to make a devised theatre piece!

Hope you feel like joining me for a bit!

What if we win?

What if the children go to schools unafraid of tear gas and bullets?

What if the birds come back, and the bees are healed, and every species moves from endangered, to threatened, to thriving?

What if the rainforest ADVANCES?

What if every parking lot had solar panels? What if every structure had solar panels? What if we built climbing gyms and terraced gardens in the skeletons of old coal power plants?

What if you baked your neighbor bread, and they shared their home-grown blackberries?

What if every person who needed a home, had one? What if every person who needed healing was healed?

What if every body was treasured for what it was, not what it should be?

What if every trans child's parents attended their graduation, their wedding, their new-name-day?

What if every warehouse became a closed-circle repair station? Goods flowing out, and back, and out again? What if landfills started to SHRINK?

What if the water and air were clean? What if there was enough public transit that the cars dwindled, leaving the streets safe for kids on bikes, evening deer, midnight cats and foxes?

What if we win?

How would you win?

#hope as dreaming #hope as possibilities #future #remember we can win

#hope as gratitude #joy as an act of resistance #joy as hope
