Hope is a good thing and no good thing ever dies.
Andy Dufresne The Shawshank Redemption
Hope is a dangerous thing. It can drive a man insane.
Red The Shawshank Redemption
From Greek mythology Pandora was given a jar (Pandora's Box) filled with seductive gifts from the Gods however she was told not to open it. Well, if you were given a jar and told never to open it ... ever. What would you do? How long could you hold out?
So low and behold all the evils of mankind; crime, poverty, pain, abuse, hunger, sickness and vice flew out into the universe. Except, one thing was left inside the jar. Hope.
Sometimes in life the only thing that keeps you going is HOPE.

Having hope for a better future is so important. It's what makes people get up each day...

In times like these, if you don't have hope, you don't have anything!

I agree you have to hang onto that tiny spark of hope as tightly as you can. I've found even in my darkest nights of the soul times I've still had her glow inside me. I feel so sad for those wretched souls who have had to abandon her. xx
Thanks everyone for your comments and best wishes. It's funny how we see hope as a girl ...
Yes, never give up on hope ... :)
Been thinking about that lately, how long can I hold out...?
Good luck on things!
Amen, sister! Although, you could probably go without the "sometimes"
