[Titilayo Sarah Eguridu]

My hope for our world and people who walk it is to
Live in concert regardless of differences,quit modernizing and glamorizing hate.
Be bold enough to love everyone with a deep understanding that tomorrow is not promised, and time is to be courted respectfully.
Let’s stop weaponizing food,love,color,diversity,age.Let’s be human…again.

Country: Nigeria
I am deeply honored to be part of this collaboration.

Never lose Hope
The hands of the mind are tired
And the twin hands of the body are threatening for a strike
And the legs are on go slow
But the spirit is loudly shouting,Never lose hope,never lose hope.

My hope for our world and the people who walk it is…

Be courageous,
challenge yourself
even if you're an alcoholic ne're-do-well who's forced to be alone with his thoughts, eating Spaghettios and watching dumb videos to numb my f*****g brain. I welcome you to my jungle.

Thank you, sir. It comes exclusively from my aorta

[Nishalya]

My hope for our world and the people who walk it
is as simple as the gentle bee, spreading its pollen.
As the flowers stand still for the little bee's departure,
With gratitude and love, to help each other.

My hope for our world and the people who walk it is
Above all we might find in the fight
the time and light for mercy.
Amidst inequity justice can be found
a ground for every entity.

"A Kiss For Peace"

My hope for our world and the people who walk it is
That the earth heals from all its scars
Souls find calmness beneath the stars
The place where wounds fade with each gentle kiss
And unity restores the peace we once knew but now miss

I am so happy to be part of this Holiday Collaboration, thank you so much Emmajoygreen!
Kindest regards,

Plato’s cave is as dark as ever,
Stand up and leave, or stay forever.
Hope is a soft hand that can’t make your chains fall.
The heavens are not deaf; it is your call.

My hope for our world and the people who walk it is ...

That ALL women the world over are loved, respected, admired, cherished,
as without them we are nothing...

Brings to mind one of my posts: "Punctuation … bah, who needs it!"

[Chris]

“My hope for our world and the people who walk it is…”

Accept that my perceptions are not always yours - nor yours mine - though we breathe the same air,
share the same world, dream, cry for the same pain, and die at life's, times, and Gods' whim.
May each of us pray and follow life affirming belief's - with the same fervor, continued hope, and a full
awareness and understanding of our neighbors realities and samenesses. WE are humanity, not just I's.
