Resolution
The proverbial light at the end of the tunnel, the way out, the solution to the troublesome thing. It can seem elusive and a million miles away, crushing all hope and ensuring defeat. This feeling can indeed be disheartening. Prospects for a brighter future might seem infinitesimally small. Yet, the smallest glimmer could provide the drive and courage necessary to keep moving forward, one step at a time. That tiniest of flickers acts as a beacon, a sign of resolution, the end to the struggle. Although it may seem distant and out of reach at that very moment, its appearance is a sign that the path is correct, that there is a guiding light navigating the course. Hope can be fragile, seemingly shattering at the slightest grip. Like the north star, this hope is the light which guides, providing a reference point when one has strayed off course. Even the faintest of light indicates that hope is not misplaced, that the resolution is coming, things will get better.
