Knowing that the people responsible will be trapped here withthe rest of us when it all comes to a head,and no amount of money will stop them from being mortal.

Taking care and protecting other vulnerable things like plants, animals, people

Gardening. You can’t garden without hope. You put the seed in the ground, and you just have to water it and weed it and hope it turns out. The harder you hope, the more likely the plant will succeed; if you give up hope, you’re always correct. I find as I age hope is less something I’m given, and more something I produce inside myself through practice, and gardening teaches me that.

When i do little things, take care of myself or others, i can feel the difference they make. Not always, not at first, but at some point after doing little things consistently for a while ill have a moment of “wow, that does make a difference :)” and that really does give me hope.

Brush your teeth, take a walk, pick up a piece of litter (and sanitize your hands after), and nod a quick hello at a passerby - such small things - just a few examples of endless oppertunities.

After doing it for a while and seeing the small effects compound, ive realized theyre actually quite big things, bigger than i thought, im better and the world is better for doing the small things, and it gives me hope.

My legs usually. Comedy and jokes too.
