“They would always want to look beyond the horizon, not just at it – which might explain a lot” George Martin talking about The Beatles.

Having focused on people’s hopes for many years in my work as a therapist, in more recent years I have been reflecting and reading more widely about hope, hopes, and hoping (finding the right words is a big part of it), and now I want to turn this reading into a little writing. To extend my thinking by putting some posts out there and making some connections.

I hope that this blog will help me in my learning about hope, hopes and hoping, in my writing, and in sharing ideas with others…

Ideas about hopes and the future, and connections between therapy, philosophy, social research and changing the world. And art and music and sport and probably most other aspects of life too…

I’d love to hear your thoughts about anything I write. There’s a comments box at the end of each post. And please do subscribe.
