1. "My hope still is to leave the world a bit better than when I got here." - Jim Henson 

Quote is plain and simple; leave the world a better place then when you found it so other people can enjoy it.

2. "Hope is being able to see that there is light despite all of the darkness." -Desmond Tutu 

Despite all of the craziness and scary things going on in the world right now like the riots and the pandemic, and as super cheesy as this sounds, if you can find something positive - hold on to it; it will take you a long way until the darkness in your life ends.

3. “Do not let the behavior of others destroy your inner peace.” —Dalai Lama

Do not let what others do to you or the things in the world destroy the peace you have within yourself. You can be mad, sad, angry, etc. but do not become abusive, unkind rude, etc. to others; remember the peace inside of you and bring that peace to others.

4.  “But what are loyalty and caring really worth?""To me? Everything.”― Richelle Mead, The Golden Lily

6. “You should feel beautiful and you should feel safe. What you surround yourself with should bring you peace of mind and peace of spirit.” —Stacy London

It is scary not feeling safe especially with the riots, brutality, and COVID-19. How can we be comfortable if we are not safe? i can we walk the streets if we are not safe? Peace is needed; spread it 24/7.

7. Human kindness has never weakened the stamina or softened the fiber of a free people. A nation does not have to be cruel to be tough. -Franklin D. Roosevelt

We don't have to be mean for any reason to get something across; just be nice or walk away if you can. Peaceful protest, peaceful talks, peaceful agreements - peace is better than fighting.

8.“They say a person needs just three things to be truly happy in this world: someone to love, something to do, and something to hope for.”― Tom Bodett

9. "Let go of the thoughts that don’t make you strong." —Karen Salmansohn

Negative thoughts do nothing for you - think positively. Easier said than done but it doesn't help to beat yourself up about things either.

10. “We love the things we love for what they are.” ― Robert Frost

Can't we just love unconditionally?
