Keeping Hope Alive.

There is hope for a hewn down tree, whose root is still in the soil.

Hope is what makes a farmer to till the ground,
To dig a hole in the ground,
To cover it up with sand,
To water that which he has put in the ground, until it sprout,
To nurture and give the seedlings all it takes until the earth give back to him, a manifold of what he has planted.

Hope is what makes an hunter to keep hunting,
Though, he didn't keep any animal in the forest
But, every morning he would rise up, clean up his hunting tools and head out .
If unfortunately, his traps didn't catch any prey neither does his gun has animal bloodstain,
He wouldn't quit his profession out of no reward for his labour and settle for the work of a blacksmith.
He would restrategies, up his hunting games until every of his hunting earns him a kill.

Hope is what makes Thomas Edison not to give up on his invention,
The first trial resulted to an error,
The second trial wasn't any different but a 0.00000000000001 improvement from the first attempt.
The third trial, he must have gotten so frustrated and blurted "Edison, you aren't stupid,you've just explored three attempts that wouldn't work for what you're about to create".
However, the fourth trial was as disastrous as the third .
And the fifth trial wasn't in any way close to the result.
The sixth attempt,got him a closer result farther from the fifth and yet, he kept experimenting on and on. Despite many failed attempts, Edison didn't bowed out on his invention until his one thousand (1,000) unsuccessful attempts and then, he got the formation for the first
electrical bulb.

How To Strengthen Hope.

Life sometimes present us with difficulties we never thought we could find an headway out if it. Banking our faith seems to be next thing to do since,it doesn't cost anything to keep one's hope alive. We then lean our faith on a thin thread called Hope hoping, "this will also pass".

This one too will pass away and return no more.
It wouldn't see my end neither will it know my end.
It will pass away as if it never happened
It will pass away and i will remember it no more.

This too shall pass,it wouldn't see my end but I'll see to the end of it.

To keep the flames of Hope burning, imbibe the following;

• See every day as a blessing; as a new day to do things differently. After all, when there is life there's hope.
• Perceive challenges, difficulties and adversities as a beginning of another level of growth not as a thing that seek to see your end.
• Meet with people of like-mind,who has passed through that phase of life for guidance and counselling.
• Don't give up on yourself because those who do,don't get to have a success story to tell.

Don't deaden your hope, keep it alive,keep it aflame.....
