Is Hope always a good thing?? I do not agree. Not to be pessimistic here, but having a more practical outlook...
When anything goes wrong, when anything does not happen, as we wished it would, when we are uncertain of the consequences, we Hope. But is this Hope an inspiration or just cowardliness ( in the sense that it is an escape to accept the reality on the desires of something better) ?
The famous saying goes as "The World lies on Hope". We always feel that the better is yet to come. No doubt that we all have faced the bad phase of life and the good is also to come, but as Human Habit has it, we see the bad more than the good, and also remember the bad times more than the good times.
It is good to be hopeful, but where is the limit? Why to hope for things which are not in ones hands? Being Hopeful is good, as it can make someone, do better than they would have. It can change perspectives, but it cant change ones LIFE.
If a man is suffering from some disease, he hopes to get better, but if there is no cure... then what??? Will it not affect the person later, when he realizes how his Hope did not bear any fruit?To all those people, who will argue that Hoping does not always mean to attain ones desires, to them, I say, then what is the reason for Hoping, if one does not expect results?
Hoping for the unrealistic things to happen, which practically are impossible, would be nothing more than Foolishness. Keeping such hopes high, brings nothing more than more sorrow, when each day makes us realize that what we wish to have is far away from reach.
Many times people, hope for the person they love to love them in return, even after the person has refused, but they still keep hoping, that one day, their true love will win. They still hope that the person will return to them after recognizing their true love........ such a hope, how is it for better? when its making someone suffer everyday?? Hoping for impossible things only making you suffer and not anyone else, and when we realize that it bore no fruit, then, theres only pain, which can lead one to take drastic steps.... and in such a case Hope was nothing more than added trouble.
As said earlier, there is a limit one should be hopeful about and not about things which are not in our control. You can determine your actions, but you can not control others, destiny and fate!!
