Hope:
A feeling of anticipation, a yearning for a particular thing
to happen.
A feeling of trust, belief that things will turn out ok.
Wanting something to happen as per one's wish.
For me, hope is that feeling I rely on when things in life
seem to go topsy turvy. It's my best friend who pulls me out from the despair
caused due to life's rigmarole. It's always on my speed dial when I am stressed
and need some solace. Past few days have been tough and I realised the only
thing I was desperately clinging to was "HOPE".
Hope for
better days to come, hope of a better and brighter future.
In parallel, I
came across a fellow human being, who was facing a myriad of troubles in her life. She
seemed to have given up on a better future and worst given up on herself. I had
a tough time seeing her struggle through life.
I was
desperate to help but she was totally closed to receive any help. A very
difficult situation. For days on end, I would struggle to make her understand
that she has the power to change her life. It's just that she had to take the
responsibility to make changes for the betterment. But nothing I
said or did helped in anyway 💔
And that's
when it hit me suddenly, she had lost all hope, all desire to better her life. To want a better future. This really saddened me to a great extent and that's
when I researched the below findings:
1. Nurturing
hope is a continuous process, it cannot be suddenly called upon when in
tough times.
2. You have
to cultivate hope in your persona by believing in some supreme power/being, by
accepting life situations as they are and cultivating a positive thought pattern
for better outcomes in future.
3. Hope is
an ongoing process of choosing positive emotions like optimism, devotion,
compassion, trust and self confidence.
It requires self-discipline of not succumbing to negative emotions like anxiety,
stress, fear or doubt.
Yes. 'Hope' is hard work but then it can be your best arsenal when in tough times!
Wishing you loads of love, happiness and all things good!
Keep hoping
for the best 💖💝✌
