Why 'Infinite Hope'?

Taken from words spoken by Martin Luther King, Feb 1968

"We must accept finite disappointment, but must never lose infinite hope"

Hope is not blind optimism, but a powerful drive to work for a better future. This hope is "infinite" because it is not tied to a specific achievement; it is a state of being, a continuous source of motivation to keep going even through disappointments.

The PEB film describes some deep 'disappointments' that could tip us into despair. And it points us towards the spirit of 'infinite hope' that can help us imagine and work towards a better future.

WHAT'S NEXT FROM The Café of Infinite Hope

After the PEB Screening, we will be holding evening gatherings in the Town Hall on the last Wednesday of each month. The aim is to come together and imagine the different ways that we might work towards a better future. starting with these topics:

Wed December 30th 7-9pm – Sharing responses and plans

Wed January 27th 7-9pm – Somerset Climate Action Network

Wed February 24th 7-9pm – Food growing and supplies
