Hope even in hopelessness

                   Hope, the word in itself is uncertain. Yet, it is the reason why so many people survive the most difficult times. They suffer, they pretend to have that smile, they accept everything wrong that happens in the hope that everything WILL be set right. I mean it is the outlook with which you look at hope which makes it positive. You may say its deceiving but there are times when it takes you from the brink of breaking down into pieces to achieving something which is unbelievable.

Hope is linked to optimism in many ways. I can always cite hope as a reason to why I'm found a positive person by most. It may be exasperating for many, my always happy attitude because life is meant to be bad, sad and not the way you want it. But hope will survive where greed doesn't . When you expect, hope has no place left. So you don't expect. Does that mean you're not confident of what is expected of you?

So, where does hope actually have a meaning? A place where expectations do not thrive. A place where the chance of a positive outcome seems bleak. But the mind is not weak. There is hope, it will happen. That's not all. You really must want it to happen. And you must hope for it to happen. It will.

And its not about you doing it. Its about how it is. Hope is where things are meant to be. If something has to happen, it will. You must hope. It may take a long time, years even, but when it happens, you must remember a time when you had thought this would never happen but finally it did. It is what makes you happy, satisfied to live.You may say certain things must happen soon but we expect all of them to do so, that's where greed enters.

But hope can have a negative connotation too. Sometimes, holding on to things which don't exist anymore with the hope they will change is deceiving. They may change but when you know its time to move on and you don't ,its plain foolishness.

 A very thin line differentiates optimism and foolishness. Its very difficult to identify it. During such times, you have to trust your instincts.

And it is during such times that you feel people are hopeless. You feel cynical. Finally, when you have to take a decision as to why it is all wrong, you'd rather not and hope. At this point of time, hope is for you to survive the negativity, to lead the path to people who you would even trust your life with. How much ever people say hope raises expectation, they are and always will be two different entities, one not to be confused with the other.

So hope for life, hope for joy, hope for trust cuz even if you don't realize, hope is the biggest wealth we have right now.

"There are only two ways to live your life. One is as though nothing is a miracle. The other is as though everything is a miracle."

Now this makes me hopeful. Everything will be alright. God willing.
