Renewal is:
-rekindling, looking to a new future, finding hope,
-resuming an activity after an interruption, renewing a past friendship,
-the cycles of nature: spring growth, forest regeneration, a new moon,
-extending validity, such as renewing a passport, a library card, a subscription, or marriage vows,
-repair of something worn out, restoring to an original state, recovering strength or urban renewal.
Renewal happens in many ways, combined with hopes and fears.
