  A little bit of Hope

  So if you haven’t already noticed, we have been posting a lot of content recently in relation to hope. It’s not a new concept, nor a new hot topic. It’s just one that we think is important, whether we help remind you it exists or we impart a little spark of it to you, we truly and sincerely believe it helps. Speaking about hope is a little daunting though, because regardless of where you are in the world, it is one of the hardest things to speak about when the person you are talking to is experiencing pain or loss or disorientation.

  So we came up with an idea recently that we thought was quite cool. It might not reach out to everyone, but maybe a few of you might find it useful to yourself or even someone in your life that might be going through some difficulties. It may be a little corny, but the meaning behind it is genuine. Introducing the stinkythepig Hope Series.

  

  The text on the card reads as follows:

  HOPE

  There are times in life where you are challenged with things that you once thought unfathomable. Where do you look for the thing that helps you find the courage to eventually move on? When trouble has found its way into your life, look inside yourself for HOPE (see center of the frame).

  There will be times where you think that all HOPE is gone. But no matter what may come, it never leaves your side. It may be small but it never goes away. It is not until you see situations through a different perspective (see magnifying glass) that you actually realise that your HOPE begins to grow.

  This is but a simple reminder of something that you already know. Nevertheless, I hope that it fills your heart with a little warmth and love.

  Be Free! Stinky goes to Asia

  Happy new year to all! We apologise for not wishing you one earlier. We felt that our post from last week was important, so we did not want to cloud it with any other messages. But that deed has been done and now we can focus on the brighter side of things.

  We went through some of the photos we had of Stinky in his travels and noticed a lovely picture of Stinky next to a picture of a little girl. But it wasn’t until recently that we noticed that there was text in the picture that read ‘Be Free’. So we thought whether there was any better advice you could give, other than to free yourself? Being free could apply to so many things and it is not until we learn to truly be free, that we are able to find the haven of happiness. So what are we so caught up in that we need to be reminded of something so simple? Financial stress, bad habits that are hard to shake, free from being forced to work, emotions and a world where love no longer rules supreme? I’m sure the list could go on forever.

  Having said all this, we think that true freedom is when your heart and mind act as one. So set yourself a goal, to put your hearts wishes into action. Whether it is mustering up the courage to the tell girl of the dreams that you love her, to sponsoring a child – go ahead and do it.

  Since we are on the topic of following your heart, Stinky is finally going to Asia. First stop Singapore. It is quite amazing that Stinky has probably travelled to more places than we have! We look forward to sharing more of his adventures in Asia when he returns. But we are more than excited to see what he will get up to. If you live abroad, and would like to help Stinky in his travels, send us an email at info@stinkythepig.com and we can try and organise something.

  Until next we meet, it is Bon Voyage for now.
