Wayne’s Word – hope

It’s a little nod to Wayne’s World, but instead of ‘party time, excellent’ (if you are aware of the cult nineties classic) I will be diving into one WORD each day. It could be something I learned, something bizarre that happened, a favourite word that I have rediscovered or just a thought that won’t leave me alone.

Today’s word is HOPE.

I’ve been thinking of Good Friday a lot today, more so because I was working and talking to my patients about their plans for the day. One of the many things I love about Sydney is that it is so multicultural and I really enjoy learning about different religions and traditions, with today being a very important day for many.

I heard the word ‘Hope’ on TV when I returned home from work and it got me thinking about the connection to Good Friday. I feel that hope and Good Friday are deeply connected—not because the day is happy, but because it dares us to believe that something better is just ahead, even when we can’t see it yet and I believe that to be the case with this special day.

I hope you all have a lovely Good Friday, if you celebrate observe it.

Wayne

  1. I don’t get this ping-back stuff, but Dan made me curious about your new idea so I had to look. “Hope” hooked me. The word and its meaning are elusive, I fear. For those in certain traditions, Good Friday leads to Easter Sunday, and therein lies the hope. Other traditions hold to hope too, thank goodness. You are fortunate to live among so many traditions in your patients, and I’d have to think that hope is at the core of your profession.
