Bishop Greer GodseyI know this is beyond what many of you would find acceptable for a <a href="https://mastodon.myocci.social/tags/mutualaid" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#mutualaid</a> post, but I am hoping for a little help to brighten my daughter's day. My daughter helps us so much. She is there for us with our health struggles and works to help us financially as she can. She is a hard worker and very dedicated to making other's life better. She really wants to go to a con in Atlanta next week but is running tight on funds to do so. I would like to help her, but we are out of money ourselves. I would love to raise $500 to help her.

Futurist Jim Carroll"𝑇ℎ𝑒𝑟𝑒 𝑖𝑠 𝑠𝑜𝑚𝑒𝑡ℎ𝑖𝑛𝑔 𝑢𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑛𝑖𝑎𝑏𝑙𝑦 𝑝𝑜𝑤𝑒𝑟𝑓𝑢𝑙 𝑖𝑛 ℎ𝑜𝑝𝑒!" - Futurist Jim Carroll(What a stage! But that's not me - that's something undeniably powerful from Ideogram.AI!)Lots of folks are struggling. For countless people, 2025 has proven to be a less-than-magical year.In that context, have you ever thought one of the best ways to give yourself some hope is by giving some back? That you can best move forward by helping others do the same?Let's think about the power of kindness.There's something undeniably powerful in hope. You can spend a small moment to spark a belief in someone else that there is a brighter future, and maybe encourage them to take their next step.There's something undeniably powerful in truth. In an error in which it is becoming in short supply, staking a moral ground truth and encouraging others to do so can, in the long run, help lay the groundwork for real solutions and progress.There's something undeniably powerful in empathy. When you spend more time understanding another perspective and showing that you care, you will give someone the exact support they need.There's something undeniably powerful in vulnerability. When you dare to share your own experiences openly, you will encourage others to trust you and seek the help they need.There's something undeniably powerful in kindness. At this moment in time, extending a helping hand or a thoughtful gesture can directly brighten someone's day.There's something undeniably powerful in giving. Whether it's your time, resources, or funds, know that you always have the chance to make a tangible difference in someone's life.There's something undeniably powerful in patience. Knowing that everyone is in a different stage on their journey, and so offering them the support of waiting can encourage them to keep going.There's something undeniably powerful in trust. If you take a moment to show confidence in the abilities of others, you will be empowered. them to act and succeed on their own.There's something undeniably powerful in forgiveness. The simple fact is, that we all make mistakes, and the act will allow others to move forward from past hurts and achieve what they need to.There's something undeniably powerful in listening. In an era in which everyone is shouting, taking the time to truly hear what someone else is saying, shows the respect they might need at this difficult moment.There's something undeniably powerful in purpose. Because you will find meaning in serving others, turning your good intentions into impactful actions.There's something undeniably powerful in all of us.Futurist Jim Carroll has always found that there is something powerful in writing.**<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Hope" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Hope</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Kindness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Kindness</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Power" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Power</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Truth" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Truth</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Empathy" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Empathy</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Vulnerability" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Vulnerability</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Giving" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Giving</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Purpose" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Purpose</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Forgiveness" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Forgiveness</a>** **<a href="https://mastodon.futurist.info/tags/Listening" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#Listening</a>**Original post: <a href="https://jimcarroll.com/2025/06/decoding-tomorrow-your-daily-future-inspiration-your-better-self-there-is-something-undeniably-powerful-in-hope/" rel="nofollow noopener" translate="no" target="_blank">https://jimcarroll.com/2025/06/decoding-tomorrow-your-daily-future-inspiration-your-better-self-there-is-something-undeniably-powerful-in-hope/</a>
