What on earth is 'hope'?

'Hope' in its purest sense is nothing. Absolutely nothing. I HOPE this or that will happen but I have no way of knowing if it will or will not, nor am I able to improve my life with its outcome, as it has not as yet, happened. If I act as if it will, I lose and succumb to melancholy, disenchantment or disappointment. Alternatively, I could choose to ignore the fact that the worst or wrong outcome eventuated, and fool myself into thinking I didn't care, as if I was somehow never aware of my attempts to fool myself.

Hope.

Tricky stuff.

Hello
I would like to offer you a little ray of sunshine and hope in this world of doom and gloom - you have been nominated for a Reader Appreciation Award. Only because you amuse me. Just a little.

    The Challenge

    Who is prepared to write on hope? Anyone?.

Come back sometime - maybe you can post a message of hope. Wouldn't that be just grand?
