Welcome to the Hope Hotline
A collaborative effort made possible by Katherine Gotshall English it is because of people like Katherine that HOPE is still alive today.
What a year it has been! With events being experienced both locally and globally like no other time. No doubt you have faced challenges, and maybe even a personal hardship during this time as it has been a year filled with opportunities to doubt, to fear or maybe even to feel hopeless.
Today I am here to say there is HOPE!
We are here today because there IS HOPE!
I'm James Possible and for TODAY and next 6 days I will be the Hope Hotline host or as Katherine calls it the "Hope Ambassador".
It is both a priviledge and an honor to be here with you on this 2nd day of August 2009.
Thank you.
Life and living have a way of being relentless teachers.
We either allow life to grind away until there is nothing left of us or like a stone being polished in a tumbler we become stronger and wiser as we embrace the challenges and through it all become the people we most want to be.
Still, keep in mind, life isn't just about the challenge, it's important to remember life is meant to be celebrated. Life is meant to be experienced.
Life is meant to be breathed in...sometimes you've just got to take a moment to sit back and breath it in. Deeply and slowly. Reminding yourself that you are alive! and because you are alive
there is HOPE!
So, let's take a moment to take a deep slow breath and remind ourselves of why we are here...in a word...
HOPE!
*******************************************************
Exercise...
Ok, close your eyes...
Now let's take a couple deep and hopeful breaths together...
Breathing in slowly and deeply and breathing out slowly
Ready...
Breath in...breath out...
Ok, one more time...
Breath in...breath out...
*******************************************************
So thank you for being here...thank you for your trust and your willingness to explore your hope with me.
It is my intent to celebrate you for being here, to celebrate you for saying "I'm not giving up!", or maybe even for saying "I love my life!"
No matter where you are today my goal is to share with you the experience of HOPE!
To do that I will be sharing with you what I know about Hope, what I've experienced with hope and why I feel hope can be the difference between a life well lived and a life of disappointment.
Whether or not it is about you, your job, your business, your family or even a friend...right now, right here I want you to know HOPE can make or break you.
You're here and that means something, and because you are I'm going to give you my very best.
Your Sharing is the first step...
...in us experiencing this opportunity of hope for these 7 days.
Together we can find hope!
If you have a question, a doubt, a fear, a hope or you just have something to share please take the time to do so by leaving a message at the end of the call.
Even if you do nothing more than share a single word, a sinkgle thought, a feeling, a name, a hope, a concern just share it. Go ahead and let go of the thought, this is your chance, with no judgment, to let it go.
If you'd like to celebrate a victory, a choice, an experience of you living your best go ahead and share it.
Your sharing creates momentum and because of your sharing others will do the same...take this moment and make it yours.
Take advantage of this time, it is your time to use.
Ok, let's wrap it up...

1. Leave a message; what about hope is important for you.
