Keep Hope Alive

We empathize. It can be easy to lose hope as we face a mountain of hate. Thankfully, President Obama reminds us what true leadership is and gives us hope. And we should have hope. On Saturday in Boston, a ‘free speech’ rally that many feared would be overrun by white supremacist groups was cut short as thousands of counter-protesters descended. The handful of rally attendees scurried away without giving their planned speeches. Boston shows that when we choose love, when we show up, we can trump hate. Every time.
All-of-us must take a few minutes to reflect on and respect the power of collective love.
