HOPE: “from darkness into the light.”: “Here was a light behind the despair, beyond the darkness. At first a flicker of an ember, just a tiny pin-prick of dawning possibilities. Then burning slowly, brightly and bigger, a glimmer, a candle in the blackness of despair, which gave off just enough of a glow (luminescence?) to light a path. And so show the rest of us the way ahead… a path to endless possibilities…from the darkness into the eternal light.”

“When love endures, hope inevitably follows

When hope endures, dreams persist… and will never die”

from ‘It’s Always Darkest Before the Dawn’
