After another 12 months of ups and downs, 2022 might not be feeling like a particularly happy new year right now.
But as the vaccine rollout continues at record pace, England prepares to bring football home and the nation looks forward to celebrating the Queen's Platinum Jubilee (and a four day weekend), there are some glints of light in the gloom.
Here at the Mirror, we want to kickstart 2022 by sharing your reasons to be hopeful this year.
Maybe you're getting married, starting your dream job or simply looking forward to spending quality time with loved ones. You might be hopeful that your favourite music festival will finally go ahead, or that 2022 will be a brighter year for the planet.
Whatever it is — big or small — we want to know.
