“Respectful boundaries are needed so that we can look after ourselves and continue to give to others. After all, nobody can be expected to pour from an empty cup.”
Mungi Ngomane, Everyday Ubuntu: Living Better Together, the African Way

“La esperanza requiere de confianza y de fe; una fe no necesariamente religiosa. Podemos tener fe en los demás o en nuestras propias habilidades; en la familia, en nosotros mismos, en un médico o en un compañero de trabajo. Esperanza significa que no nos hemos rendido. Es una sensación, la energía interior que nos mueve. Vivimos gracias a la esperanza y nos aferramos a ella. Si alguien la pierde significa que se ha rendido. Por otro lado, el optimismo es un sentimiento y los sentimientos vienen y se van. Así que cuando las cosas se tuercen, puede convertirse rápidamente en pesimismo, pues depende de las circunstancias de cada momento. No decimos «donde hay vida, hay optimismo». Decimos «donde hay vida, hay esperanza».”
Mungi Ngomane, Ubuntu. Lecciones de sabiduría africana para vivir mejor

“La capacidad para proyectar el futuro es un componente clave del poder de la esperanza. Si no puedes hacer nada para mejorar tu situación, al menos puedes imaginar un desenlace positivo. Esto te ayudará a estar menos confuso. Cuando te permites imaginar el mejor de los escenarios en lugar del peor, te sientes aliviado. Si la alimentas, la esperanza irá creciendo, pero si solo tienes pensamientos cínicos o negativos, desaparecerá.”
