Being hopeful

Being hopeful...

This may sound an easy task to do but its not.

In the beginning it might seem an easy thing to do as we are just waiting for the thing which we are hoping for, to come true but with the passage of time, it becomes more difficult to keep up that hope.

And as it become more back-breaking with the time, we start to question out ourselves like what if we are hoping for the wrong thing? What if it never comes true?

Unfortunately these self created questions dwindle our beliefs and eventually we lose hope. And when people ask or something else reminds of it, we try to convince ourselves and to others by explaining that how stupid it was or that it was a mistake or anyway it wasn't going to work even if it came true.

I really don't understand why would they do that for? Just because it's not happening at that moment or its because it has been a month or a year ?? 

It certainly can't be that stupid because you started to hope for it in the first place and you have been hoping since , till this very moment.

Even i heard from many people that if its not happening and its been a while then we should stop ourself from hoping and move on.

So this means :

We (humans) have an amazing yet very sad tendency to hope for something which doesn't exist at present , ONLY for a certain period of time and when we get tired of waiting , we simply give up. 

We put down all our beliefs, entire faith to rest.

Isn't it ludicrous?

If i remember correctly ,i once read this line by a famous personality about hope :

"We must accept finite disappointment, but never lose infinite hope"

So yes we may face some hurdles while traveling but we should never bow down. We must have hope as it is a reminder to us that there can be a way.

So I am being hopeful , are you ?
