Faith is the art of looking ahead with optimism, even when things in life aren’t going that well. In times of crisis, many people feel dejected and alone. Yet often just a gentle nudge is needed in order to realise how well supported we are, be it a kind hello from a neighbour, an “I’m there for you” kiss from your partner or the mischievous laugh of a child without a worry in the world.
Rainer Haak recounts such tales of encouragement in his new book. Stories that offer hope and allow us to believe in the good in the world. Stories that give us optimism.
“Optimism is crucial for life particularly in times of crisis. Sometimes, it is not easy to keep the faith. How good it is to know that we can decide over and over again to look to the future with hope. I want the short stories in the book to give readers good prompts.” Rainer Haak
