Hope
January 7th 2007 02:15
Hope is something that each one of us cannot live without. At the same time, hope can also be dangerous if we rely too much on it. Yet, we cannot give up on things we are hoping for. We fight for something that we want. With any luck, our dreams will come true as we wish. Even if hope does not come true, still we should not give up on ourselves, we should continue to carry on with our faith, and keep on hoping.
Should we tell a cancer patient the truth, "There is no hope for you, and you are going to die?" Definitely not! Because hope is the only reason he/she would live for. A strong will is the best medicine that this patient needs. Same situation applies for family members of a person that has been in a long coma. Everyday is a new day for them to look forward to a same hope - a hope for the wandering soul of the love one to reunite with the body. Every small reflex from this patient would mean such a significant blessing to the family members.
Some people have hopes for the better lives. We even have hopes for thing that has a slight chance to happen. We have hopes for better relationships. We hope for the health of the love ones. In some cases, people even hope for a small blessing such as getting a job. Hope brings people to churches, temples, and even to seeking helps from many superstitious practices.
A life without hope would be like a life without a purpose and with nothing to look forward to. It is the crucial part of human life that acts as a main driving force. Whether or not it will happen, we still live for that little chance. When we are in despair and misfortune, hope is the only thing that remains alive.
