DiaryOfAWorm: Hope Keeps Us Going


a particular hope by
Peter Graf

One finds hope in suffering and death. Hope is a seed that is buried. yet when rooted, grows up in the light of day. Without hope life is absurd and meaningless. Hope can be found in being and the act of doing but not in results. These are few of the thoughts that flow through my tired mind these days.

I finally got enough hope to be motivated to start the web page of quotes from Martin Luther King Jr.. Also a friend send me some new quotes from Dorothy Day, co-founder of the Catholic Worker. I like quotes from great persons, like these two, because they speak to me today and offer me hope. The quotes are still present.

In a strange way good Editorial Cartoons give me hope. They bring the light of humor to a serious situation. Check out the two new Editorial Cartoons I added today.

One of the Dorothy Day quotes I added today is about writing which this Diary of the Worm is about. It goes like this: “Writing is an act of community. It is a letter, it is comforting, consoling, helping, advising on our part as well as asking it on yours. It is part of our human association with each other. It is an expression of our love and concern for each other.”

Hope you enjoy these writings. Hope keeps us going.
