Never Loose Hope

Hope….. it’s a very common behavioural accessory that we all carry on ourselves. We don’t talk about it much but deep down in our conscious we always have hope that whatever is the next episode in our life, will pass on well. I don’t know but nobody taught me this conduct of actions, to keep my hopes on, even if I am in a deep trouble, I hope that beyond this black time period there will be a bright day light waiting for me. I think that hope is like imprinted on our system of reflexes. Hope works just like our well known five senses, whenever there is an occurrence of certain event it responds accordingly to it.

I can’t voice for every living human on this planet but in almost every person’s life he/she will encounter troubles in their life. I always compare this struggle in life to that well known theory of Darwin’s ‘Survival Of The Fittest’. This theory works perfectly for the so called civilised humans as it work in the wild, but the slight difference is that we don’t compete for only food but also power, money etc. and we don’t generally die if we fail. The reason behind why we don’t die if we fail cause we always have hope that it doesn’t matter if we have failed in present but will eventually succeed in achieving our desires.

Let’s have a philosophical representation of hope in our life. I think everyone know about the famous saying ‘For a pessimist the glass is always half empty but for an optimistic the glass is half full’, but I think we can see this example in much better way. An optimistic is a person who has big dreams and high hopes in his life, even though the incoming of water stopped at a point when he was able to achieve only half of his dreams but still he is holding to the hope that one day my glass will be completely filled and I will be at the gates of my destiny. The pessimistic is that person who has lost his hope and has settled for whatever he has. He had suffered, he was week and that’s why he had abundant his dreams, his life is now like stagnant water and it’s hard to keep it beautiful for long.

Whatever I wrote above was all philosophical but I want to give you some real life examples, some people whom I knew in the past. I stayed in Allahabad (India) for four years. There was Allahabad University which is famous to produce maximum numbers of IAS officers in the past and the IAS exams are one of the toughest exams in the world. One guy once told me how a student generally prepares for the exams. The age limit for the exam is 30 yrs and they can appear for only four times in lifetime (my information about the exams can be slightly deficient). So what they generally do is like they complete their graduation at an age of 22 yrs and they continuously prepare for four more years and at an age of 26 yrs they start giving their exams till the age of 30. The point what I want to focus is that they got such determination that doesn’t allows their hope to die. They keep their hopes alive after each big blow in their life.

So whatever you have tolerated in your life was just an experience, you might have cursed your luck for a lot of time, may have doubted your potentials but keep that in mind that there is nothing wrong in you or in your horoscope, it’s all about difficulties in life which everyone in this world have to face. Just keep your dreams on top of your mind and in spite of every problem that little ray of hope will catalyse your vision to it’s proper destination.
