Hope is the Thing with Feathers
In this episode of Daily Morningcast, we explore the power of hope as resilience in the darkest times.
Emily Dickinson gave us one of the most beautiful metaphors for hope: “Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul.” Like a small bird, it never stops singing—even when the storm rages.
We’ll connect that timeless image to Katniss Everdeen in The Hunger Games—a symbol of rebellion not through fear, but through hope—and to real-world stories of resilience, including a Michigan veteran whose life was transformed when a viral TikTok sparked a wave of generosity that raised over $120,000 to help him rebuild.
