HOPE

I have always written about the bad things or the grey and dark shades within us whether its my poetry or the columns . Even though I always say we have the habit of criticiszing a lot and I do it myself.For last 2 days I was thinking on what to write about next . For the first time watching the idiot box helped me getting some stuff while watching the usual mindless,aimless political talk show.And also some one pointed out to me you write something funny or talk about some optimisim make it something which I can have fun reading . So this new topic poped in. Hope , a four letter word  which I hope will help me complete my article.The literal meaning of hope is to have a belief to have a positive outcome from the events of life. It is the thing which keeps you moving in even the most troubled of times.Hope is built by the belief in one’s on ability , having belief in the hard work you put,and most importantly to have faith in God . He is the one who put hope inside the person.

Allah made the life difficult for the human from the very beginning.Bbut thanks to Mighty Lord its only hope which have brought the humanity this far .Sailing our ship of life from even the most turbulent times. The stories of hope are so many and so inspiring that if we project them in our country I m sure we can change the mind set of people.From the current no hope sitution to yes we can do kinda state.

First let me start from the story I heard last night.An American shoe company wanted to expand its bussiness outside USA they sent 2 of there managers to an african country to asses the market. After 6 months both the managers submitted there report .Oneof them  wrote in the report people there are so backward they even don’t know what shoes are? So I think it would be a waste to even try to give them shoes it will be just be a total loss sitution for us.On the other hand the other manager wrote that people are not aware what is a shoe ? So it will only take a bit we teach them about it and we can have a huge market on our hands within no time.It was the hope which made the  manager think like that .The company took his advice and started the project latter on not only the company became a world wide hit .Even some of the african natives became its brand ambasdors. That company was none other then Nike . See what hope can do.Out of every crisis there emerges an opportunity its just that we must have some hope to confront that and impliment that.The light at the end of tunnel is more dominating then the darkness within and its nothing else but hope.

Its hope which made einstein prove himself when he was considered a  dumb witted boy in his school days.Latter on he became the biggest scientist of recent times.Its hope in himself made  Bill Gates the owner of worlds biggest company and the creator of the initial operating system when he was dropped out of college.He laid the foundation of techonology which is today making us all connect with each other with a single click.Its also hope that Stephen Hawking from his wheel chair can write a book and make it one of the best sellers of the  known history . The man who can not even move with his will never let his disability take over his hope.He is perhaps the best example of hope.As the say after every sunet there comes a new dawn.That man proved it . Its indeed true we can fight the darkness within from even a small candle of hope always burning inside ourselves.

Another story I must mention it may not be that inspiring but it is worth reading.There was a young boy once he was supposed to sit an exam .One day before that he went to market and there was an old lady .She was not able to cross the road .The boy helped the lady in crossing the road.The lady gave her well wishes for his future .A candle of hope  suddenly came alive inside the boy’s heart he became sure he will pass the test.It so happened he cleared the test but couldn’t make it to where he wanted.He was very frustrated but still there was a hope sitting some where in his heart .And finally the old lady’s wishes came true that boy achieved what he wanted . Life kept on moving .He moved from school to college and university.Even when he was not happy with God still the hope kept him believe God.He was very pessimistic kind of and weak hearted person but somehow there was always a hope that life will get better.This thing kept him moving in life with all the difficulties coming his way.People thought he is usual kind of ordinary guy.He thought lets try something .He started writing poems.Initially people were very critical like always in our society.But his eagerness to prove himself kept him moving.He changed his pen name and started writing poems by the name of famous poet.You wont believe all of sudden people started liking that stuff .Hope made him do what his skills wouldn’t have done. He could never even draw a line but he thought lets put my emotions in colours .And somehow he was satisfied with what he did.The belief in his ablities did it again.Its not that life was very happy for him as I said he was very passimistic kind of person but still the light at the end kept him moving.Then suddenly one day someone asked him to write some inspirational essays.He never in his life have even dreamt of writing but he thought lets try this one thing too .He did it and people not only liked it but the thing to proud of was that even his parents considered he has got some skills .The faith in God made him do that.So all the conditions of hope got fullfilled and he became a better human.Not someone great or big but a good human being .Someone who is happy at heart.And one who is happy from within will be happy from outer.I probably don’t need to tell who that person is some of you may  have figured it out .And those who havn’t cant find out because I my self know very less about that guy too.

But  in short let that candle of hope burning within yourself to bring the change.Let that ray of hope fall on others too.And only this can change us even hardwork sometimes doesn’t pay .
