Hope :')

Hope? Isn't that the thing which is driving us? Isn't that the thing which is helping us survive. Human nature has the tendency to have a backup of a lovely little thing called hope. When this backup gets drained, the worst things happen in the form of various outbursts. Death to be certain. So, hope!

Recently, my loving friend who found her passion in photography had sent this beautiful picture. And asked me to write something about it (as if I'm a great writer. *laughs*). This photo signified only one thing: Hope, it was.

Why? I had Imagined that these raindrops which are considered to be joyous and sorrowful at times, had suffered a great downfall as it pours from the high skies to the lowest grounds. But, did the drop lose its hope? No! It finds a new shelter within the green leaves and provides as a major source of food for them. Well, that's one way of thinking.

People might say, It is a nice climate and the plants are naturally watered. To be precise, it is a nice "weather". Okay! I think I'm boasting. What I am trying to convey is that, people think differently and everything is good in a way.

In Boston 2004, at the Democratic National Convention a young guy named Barrack Obama dropped the hope bomb on people which made him win the election and made him the President of The United United States of America. It was quoted by him as follows, "That's not what I'm talking. I'm talking about something more substantial. It's the hope of slaves sitting around a fire singing freedom songs; the hope of immigrants setting out for distant shores; the hope of a young naval lieutenant bravely patrolling the Mekong Delta; the hope of a Mill worker's son who dares to defy the odds; the hope of a skinny kid with a funny name who believes that America has a place for him, too. (Applause)

Hope in the face of difficulty, hope in the face of uncertainty, the audacity of hope: In the end, that is God's greatest gift to us, the bedrock of this nation, a belief in things not seen, a belief that there are better days ahead."

This speech gave the people of America hope as well for himself and later he made it as the President. This is how hope affects people. It injects into the deepest of minds. It gives people, lives to live. Intrigues the strings of your heart, this little hope.

So, coming back to my story, I penned the exact lines to her:

"From the high skies, to the low greens, even Hope blushes as the drops find a new home."

Personifying hope was my idea as the entire image conveyed the meaning of HOPE indirectly. So, hope is mandatory little thing, which no one should lose, As long as one hopes, they're never losing in life, even if they're bankrupt and have no place to live literally. So? The bottom -line? HOPE!

"Remember Red, hope is a good thing, maybe the best of things, and no good thing ever dies."

-Shawshank Redemption(1994).
