In this episode, Alisha and Kat explore the difference between passive complacency and true faith. They discuss how despair can distort desire, the importance of holding onto personal dreams, and the shift that happens when hope begins to replace hurt. It’s a thoughtful conversation on faith, longing, and the courage to keep dreaming.
"No two lives are the same. We often compare our lives with those of others, trying to decide whether we are better or worse off, but such comparisons do not help us much. We have to live our life, not someone else’s.
We have to hold our own cup. We have to dare to say; “This is my life, the life that is given to me, and it is this life that I have to live, as well as I can. My life is unique. Nobody else will ever live it.
I have my own history, my own family, my own body, my own character, my own friends, my own way of thinking, speaking, and acting-yes, I have my own life to live.
No one else has the same challenge. I am alone, because I am unique. I have to make my own choices about how to live.”
