Kalamata
17th Symposium of Counterpoint:
The word creation has within it the meaning of forming something from nothing, or from the raw.
Creativity stems from a combination of knowledge, leveraging the achievements of others, personal experiences, freedom, imagination, and giving meaning to life.
We also use the verb create for human relationships, because we want to emphasize that relationships are the result of action, intention, care, and imagination.
A relationship is something alive and changing. Every moment we participate in the co-creation of the space between us.
Hope is primarily the virtue of movement and the driving force of change. Hope requires active participation, commitment and personal responsibility.
False hope is worse than despair.
Hope does not mean that everything will happen as we wish, but that we have the strength to try even when the outcome is uncertain. Man hopes not because he knows the outcome, but because he is committed to the process of life. Hope goes beyond fear and doubt.
Where is my hope based, where do I place my expectations? In money, in consumption, in prestige, in image, or simply in the pursuit of pleasure?
Where is my hope based? In hard work, in creativity, in social contribution, in the creation of authentic relationships?
My true identity is determined by the elements that make up my hope.
