When All Hope Is Lost

“I felt as if I were riding a pendulum. Just as I would swing into the abyss of hopelessness, the pendulum would swing back with some small goodness.”

― Ruta Sepetys

        Life can be utterly devastating at times. Some days it feels like you are trapped outside in a raging storm with no end in sight. In one moment, everything you believed in can be destroyed and you’re left feeling empty and hollow with your heart bleeding out on the ground. Hope feels like one of those childhood fairy tale stories made up to help kids sleep at night. But, it is at these times when everything has fallen apart that you must hold on to the belief that life is like a pendulum. And even though life has swung into an abyss of hopelessness for many of us, we must believe that one day it will swing back with some small goodness.
