As a young writer, hope is one of the few things that kept me going. I would read a story about someone who was 50 or 60 or 7o and he had just published his first novel. After years of toiling in the salt mines of writing, he found success. These stories inspired me to keep writing. I had hope that one day I would be discovered and become successful. Even today I have that sense of hope, that belief that one day I will be proved right. Yes, I am a writer.
When we lose hope, we give up on life. We quit. Some days all we have is hope. As the old saying goes: every dark cloud as a silver lining. We just have to find it — to look at the world with new eyes. To see the butterfly in the midst of chaos. No matter how dark the night, there is always a sunrise. Everyone faces challenges and difficulties. The sad thing for me is people who see no way out of a problem but to take their own lives. Never give up hope for a better tomorrow.
As creative thinkers, we need hope. We need to believe in ourselves, our ideas, our art. Have faith that you have been given a gift. Have faith in your dreams. Have faith that the sun will rise again.
