Hope.

Hope. This small word that means so much to us. How can that be? What is hope? How come it is so important to us? It's said that hope is that last thing that abandons us. Why is that? How come it is so crucial in our lives? We go around and hope for all sorts of things all the time. For small things like no rain today or meatballs for dinner to huge life changing things like that job of our dreams of the love of our life to notice us. But how long can you live on hope? How long until all that is left is actually hope? I'm thinking way to long. All these people being hung up on hope, making them not able to see all the other possibilities surrounding them. That's stupid. Hoping for a relationship to work, when there's actually nothing left behind the hope. Hoping for that career when we should just realise it's not for us. We can have the knowledge, the rational insight but still there it lures: hope. I have hopes. For many things. And some of them I don't mind at all. Others I'm trying to leave behind. Beacuse that's what you have to do. Hope doesn't abandon you. Hope can stay with you for ever if you let it. You have to be the one to leave. It doesn't mean that the thing you had hopes for never will happen. It just means that you have to move forward and live happily like it wount. Then if it will, that's just a bouns.
