People are answering the question: 'What, if anything, gives you hope?'

Considering the fact that our planet is melting, it's ok if you aren't feeling particularly hopeful right now.

Even when your life feels like it crashed, burned and flipped face-forward into a garbage truck of moldy towels, having hope that your situation can change is a very helpful and powerful force. Hope for a better future is the foundation for human development and believing in positive change has been necessary since the first human invented the wheel.

While getting enough sleep, drinking water, eating vegetables and running can all help your mood, sometimes the feeling of defeat is just too strong. So, when Brooklyn public defender @ScottHench asked the internet what gives them hope, people were ready to share the little things in life that get them out of bed in the morning.
