Change is a new hope!

Hope is a small word, yet it contains a mountain of meanings. To lead this life, hope is very important. An important question is what makes hope? We all talk about the goodness of our hearts and what it means to stay positive and firm in our decisions. Although, we keep on forgetting the “how” part of this question! We keep on mitigating our belief by practising very little positivity in what we are saying or even thinking.

Change is inevitable, it cannot be denied. The human brain, however, denies one very important thing and that is positive hope for a new change and the growth that can come from it. Perspective. When we deny the change, we deny that optimistic side of that change as well. We have to realise that we are in a situation whether we want it or not, whether we deal with it or not. We cannot run away from situations and people and also we cannot stop growing, no matter how hard we try.

In the end, we will cover a journey and reach a destination. This change that we keep on bringing in ourselves makes our destination either wonderful or disastrous. The choice is ours and only ours to make. We cannot go back nor can we know what the future holds, but we do know our present situations and our present mental states. We can certainly change them both.

Many of us talk optimistically about the future and the change they want to bring, but a rare amount of us actually work hard to attain this. May we all have hope and bring positive change around us by realising our true potential.
