Radiant Stars: What gives you hope?

When you’re feeling worried about things going on in the world, what gives you hope?

 

 

Samantha S., age 13
Massachusetts, U.S.

My family and friends give me hope. Also my social studies class — so many things went wrong in history, and we were able to learn lessons from those events to build a stronger today. If people then could get past these large barriers, so can we!
