Thought for the Day

How do we get back to the struggle over the future? 

I think you have to hope, and hope in this sense is 

not a prize or a gift, but something you earn 

through study, through resisting the ease of despair, 

and through digging tunnels, cutting windows,

opening doors, or finding the people who

do these things. They exist. [. . .]

~ Rebecca Solnit
