Finding Hope
“Children find everything in nothing; men find nothing in everything.”
- Giacomo Leopardi (1798–1837), Italian poet and philosopher, from Zibaldone Scelto.
It is true that as we grow our eye’s seem to change, we seem to lose the wide and open vision that we had in childhood. Our eye’s no longer see everything with hopefulness, but begin to see things through the lens of doubt.
We must look out on the world and to the future as children do, with hope, if we are to see true change, prosperity and peace in our world. Let us go and put aside our negative visions and see the world with the eye’s of a child…let us see a better tomorrow!
