And it's HOPE..........

It's a shame that you're just pulling stuff from off the net and passing them off as your own opinion. The least you can do is to acknowledge your sources. http://sunshineinmylife4u.spaces.live.com/blog/cns!E7A80E30663534D7!1320.entry There are many people who look for advice and guidance from these discussions, it's almost like you are insulting them, if you have no opinion of your own that you would like to share then please keep off them. I am sure everyone would agree. Sorry for being rude.

I think of hope more like the light at the end of a tunnel, it shows you the way when there is darkness all around, it is what keeps you going, what keeps you from getting lost. Hope is what you hold on to when you are hanging from a cliff and sometimes you even find a helping hand to pull you up from the edge. I hope everyone finds their hope..... happy mylotting.

I'm hoping you stop rhyming. lol. Seriously? I think hope is the psychological predisposition to evaluate an event favourably, and, based on that evaluation, to be more inclined to predict a beneficial conclusion - to interpret data and suggest a positive trend, despite perhaps a lack of valid data or qualitative indications to the contrary. Personally speaking, I think hope is the spark of genius that can lie dormant in all human beings. I think it is the hallmark of the inspired. I don't think it's possible to truly live in the absence of hope.
