Hope. A simple four letters word. So many things are in four letters. Love, Like, Hate, or even vulgarities. Lol. But yea. So many things from one genre.
Let's go back to Hope. Something which is essential in everyday life. "Hope brightens up one's day." "Hope is the source of strength for one in dealing with difficulties." and bla bla bla. True. Hope is some sort of light source, providing motivation and a goal for people to head to and continue to do what they want to do. However, it is too virtual. At least to me.
It is so fragile. You hope for whatever you want, but eventually you may not get it. That is the harsh fact in the cruel reality. You hope you can get the latest Iphone, but you will not get it cause you can't afford. You hope you are better in certain area, but you can't cause either you are borned that way or it is just impossible to change. You are made to submit to certain things and you just can't escape it but to accept it. So what is the point of hoping?
I think it is the same logic as drug. It provides you with this short term relief from whatever unhappiness you are in. "I hope things will get better.", "I hope better will come". Then you will feel better. However, in the end when nothing comes, you will still end up being disappointed and you will once again trying to hope again. What a vicious cycle. Lol. In economics I've learned the Law of Diminishing Returns. Too much of expansion can bring upon bad effects. Too much of hope can then bring upon lower expectation of Life. Loooooool. I don't think anyone buy that, I suppose? Haha.
Of course you can say, "Just don't hope for the impossible la!" True. However, what is impossible? Being unable to get whatever you want forever? Or hoping there is a change in the human factors, something that is out of your control? Funny as can be, but I think many people just like to hope for the impossible things, irregardless subconsciously or intentionally. Why funny? Cause, what really is impossible? Lol.
If you are hoping, please continue, cause I believe it plays a huge part in motivating you in whatever you are presently doing=) I am just expressing some of my views only. What a pessimist am I. But what else can I still expect after falling down again and again in life? I have been hoping every now and then. Apparently most of the time it did not turn out the way as what I have intended. Disappoinment! Haha.
But of course! Life is always full of challenges. Like roses are pretty but full of thorns. So i accepted it. I confessed. I will uphold my promise and I am trying. Now I am hoping I can still be by your side. Will it be tarnished? Or will it be sustained? I am hoping..
Similarly, the feeling of liking you is sweet, but the route towards it is tough. But I never regret liking you. Cause the thought of losing you is scary=)
