How to use "Impending" in context?
When the world seems like a chaotic and uncertain place, it's important to remember that there is always something to look forward to. In the grand scheme of things, the future is always looming and waiting to be experienced. Whether it's the promises of tomorrow, or the possibilities of a new beginning, the future is always full of potential. This is what makes it so exciting and, at the same time, precarious. There's always the potential for things to go wrong, and for the world to end up in chaos. But despite all of this, there is still something to hope for.
