Film 1 - Fresh Hope

Can you identify with the guy in the Fresh Hope film? Ever been worried that it may be too late to make a new start? Life ever seem to have passed you by? How do you think we get into a position where we lose hope? And do you think fresh hope is possible at any stage of our lives?

I'm sure Charlie knew what he wanted to be, he was just never encourage to pursue it. Now he is in limbo. It's good to see Charlie walking on Hope Street on the light side of things as Charlie knows only too well the dark side of himself.

Good film, and emphasised how important it is to have hope - this is what has brought me through the last 2 years of sorrow, loss, regret, financial hardship, endless soul-searching and the testing of my christian faith.

We all get negative thoughts at times. Yes general hope can help and you can have a generally hopeful outlook, but I felt that this film was playing on the occasional negative feelings that everyone must sometimes have.

I wish...fat chance...here's hoping...I hadn't realised how often we talk about hope in everyday language. Why don't people talk about it?

Sometimes, like Charlie, we have to go through a whole lot of 'stuff' before we can begin to learn to hope. It's not always a natural thing to do - some of us have to learn HOW to hope, I know I've had to do that.

A very timely film - Charlie poses questions that I belive many of us have asked ourselves. I am very thankful for hope and love.

What a thought provoking film, wonderful! We all have to live our lives with hope. Hope is what keeps us going through those difficult times. Life would be harder without hope!

I think fresh hope is always available. As each situation arises or changes happen our hopes can change or alter too.

I liked the waythe film ended on Hope Street. Was Charlie walking away from hope and into a new hope?

We all feel like this sometimes- there's always hope that things will be better but it's up to us to do something about it!
