The beauty of hope

Ever felt like there was no point in going ahead with anything? No point in living on... no point in trying? Basically.. no point in hoping?

I'm sure we've all felt that way at some point in our lives... I know I have. Loss of hope can be extremely catastrophic. It's terrible, how you have no faith in anything... you give up because that's the easiest way out. But not in the long run. That's what we don't realise. We're so caught up in the present and the past, we don't even bother to think about our future.

I actually felt like giving up the other day. But one of my best friends pushed me to keep trying, keep on going. I did it for her. I just couldn't see how I was going to get what I wanted... but as I was persistant and stubborn... after hours of killing my thumbs re-dialling the phone... I finally got through to the radio station, and therefore entered a competition I most desire. It was all thanks to her, that sister of mine. She pushed me. She told me not to give up, even when everything looked black... no hope... no light.. no point of reason. But she had faith. Faith is when you believe in something, even when you're not entirely sure about anything... like you don't have anything to fall back on, you just hope. You have faith.

In this situation, I didn't really feel alone. I did, however, feel completely unlucky. But when I finally got through, my black night turned into the brightest of all days. It was like there were butterflies inside me going crazy! Shivers ran up and down my spine over and over again. It was a pure, genuine feeling of happiness. Of joy.

So, don't give up. Always have faith. Be stubborn... persistant. Even if you're in doubt.. do not give up. Have faith. Have hope. Believe.

the beauty, of having faith in something, even when you don't know if its real, or true. it's a beautiful thing.
