What is hope to you?
For me hope means having a positive mindset that enables a person to do anything that he can to achieve his goals.
What do you hope for?
As a person I want to be the best person that I can be. As a student I hope to be a lawyer some day As a youth, I want to promote youth empowerment among nations and encourage more youth to participate in more youthful activities.
What can you do to make that hope come true?
As a student – i will study THAT hard. (get high grades, graduating on time) As a youth, I will work at becoming a better citizen of the country and of course of the world.
Every youth has to realize that if they don’t have hope, it’s going to be hard for them to achieve anything. When we don’t have hope we neglect the fact that we can do something, that we don’t have to give up. That we can make a change in society.
