In Response To A Response

Hope may be a two-edged blade but like a pen with multiple coloured inks, we can choose to ignore the other colours and use only the pink ink :)
Hope can destroy, hope can be bad, but then and again a con-man can be trusted to be dishonest.
Perspective is a powerful tool when looking at something. Perspective shapes countries, religions, families, heroes. Perspective can shape lives. Death can be seen as rebirth or the end of the road. It's all about perspective.

It isn't about which side of hope you choose. Nor is it about what you strive for. It's the choices you make along this journey. It's about how you choose to see things. Accepting one's fate for what it is isn't always the wisest choice nor is it the most adaptive decision. Our destiny is in our own hands and the only thing Man cannot control is Death. All things leading to the River Styx are our own deeds, our own choices and what choices we make are our destiny.

Hope is indeed a noun. Your definition of it? Your perspective. Your choice. Your destiny. Our hope.

A great man grows, through his hopes & dreams.
All great men were once hopeful dreamers.
These men, are men who see brightness in the misty haze of a rainstorm in spring...or in the almost-dying embers in a furnace on a long winter's evening.
Some of us allow these hopes to fade away..
But others protect and develop them, despite being looked upon by others as foolish dreamers...
These great men cradled their hopes through dark days, all the way... till the day when they are able to bring them out into the sunlight...
This will be a day that eventually comes to those, who fought on with courage, when others have fallen...and to those that sincerely hope that their dreams will take flight...one day...

Wayne, I'm sure you will emerge as one of those great men...one day.

Love & God bless,
Jean.

Thanks JeanEe,

I'm just bumping along on my sinusoidal graph, with the peaks and the troughs of life. Well, strive for what you believe in and I will see you at the top (provided I get there). ;)

we all are living in some kind of a mathematical graph..be it a sine or cosine..very few living on the exponential graph i would say...

i believe if you love what you do, then that love would take u the distance..hard work is desired in all places..

god-willing (inshallah) you will get success in your life....this friend will be there..no matter which part of the graph u are at either sin90..or sin180..or sin540..hahaha
