This week as I was thinking on what to write about something really strange happened to me, as I was running in the beautiful Seattle city I saw a sign that said HOPE!!! It just said that... it was not advertising it was just… HOPE!! Just like that, so I started thinking maybe this week I should write about HOPE so the first resource its always Wikipedia and it says: Hope or Esperance is a belief in a positive outcome related to events and circumstances in one's life.
But if u think about it it’s not just a positive belief or outcome at all… Hope includes certain amount of wants, wishes, despair, achievements and also failure.
So as the week went on I started asking almost everyone… what does HOPE means to you? and believe me when I say I asked almost everybody, complete strangers even, and yes I got really weird looks actually, like... what does she care what I think ?or what does this lunatic girl wants?!!! Hahahhaha.
So I got a lot of answers some of them were HOPE it means faith in something , some of them told me that HOPE was an attitude and a lot of them more than you think were mmm how to say It… there were kind lost, some times they answered .. it’s a feeling …. So HOPE it’s a feeling? Or, an emotion? Is it? really?
So I started getting together what to write, and here it goes … HOPE it’s a belief that what you want to happen, will happen!!! But let’s be a real people!!! that rarely happens. And I’m not trying to bring u down or something but sometimes we want the most strange and improbably things to happen to us!!! Like for example I HOPE to win the lottery!!... ok that’s a wish but if you don’t buy a lottery ticket well … connect the dots….. or fill out the blanks as u like it.
And it comes to my mind and I will quote the Rolling Stones with their great hit: YOU CANT ALLWAYS GET WHAT U WANT, BUT IF YOU TRY SOMETIMES U GET WHAT U NEED… so u HOPE that something that you truly want to happen … happens … but if it doesn’t we settle? … Saying... Ok maybe that wasn’t for me? Don’t misunderstand me I’m a girl that really believes in HOPE but the truth is that It might sometimes happens just exactly the thing that you wished for (and that’s wonderful) but you can never guarantee that the thing that you had HOPE for will come true, and if it does let me tell u something my friend u are a very lucky person!!! Good 4 u. but for all the regular human beens out there let me continue…
Many times I have HOPE, HOPE to be rich, HOPE to be successful doing something, HOPE to be happy always, HOPE to have a good job, HOPE to find true love, and well many more… And even thou those HOPES are rarely fulfilled its amazing how our life depends on HOPE!!! So HOPE it’s on our dally bases and well….
HOPES can be for actually everything, business, family matters, love, health and for any other thing… Think about it !!!!
When the thing that you had HOPED for gets fulfilled… then you become the happiest person, but when it doesn’t … then you may have the hardest deception not only with yourself but with life in general... And we ask God, the universe, the higher powers… whatever u believe in…. WHY ME???
For me and this might sound kind of weird but after some soul searching I found out about myself that there are 2 kinds of HOPE for me….
The first one is like… I really HOPE for my best, to get what I want. Period.
The second kind of HOPE it emerges within me when the thing I HOPED for in the first place doesn’t come true, then I really try not to take it too hard and well not only worry but to act in another way to get what I want and need in the first place!!!
So I can say I have HOPE not only in success, but mostly I have HOPE in me!!! To get out there and try again!! Oh well let me be honest I try to do that all the time…. Sometimes I succeed sometimes I don’t…. and that’s fine...
But that is well not that general opinion because … and please believe me when I say my friend has a friend that well when she doesn’t get what she wants and by the time she wants it, she gets depressed and wait a sec if u do this please don’t feel offended because I’m not saying is bad it’s just different of what I used to, ok but I continue she feels really bad and finds a replacement of her wish in something not quite as healthy for her and she feels and I quote her: to be HOPEFUL is like being a failure!!! So don’t have HOPE that doesn’t exist!!! ,
And sorry but as lousy as it might sounds she gives up on HOPE .. But let me tell u something you may HOPE for good things to happen to u, but if you don’t move a finger well …yes HOPE will let u down !!!!
And well if u really want something I mean really, really want something, there are other ways to get the success u want .. u know HOPE can’t do it alone… there are your effort and interest. There are good tools 2..
And if one day u had HOPE for getting that thing you wanted , but you failed, I think the best thing you can do is to have some HOPE again for getting the same thing again and again. That will make the right meaning of “try and try until you get it”
In my opinion, HOPE matters a lot, but its not just like a belief in a positive outcome related to events and circumstances in one's life and leave it to destiny it’s more like believing in yourself and if u believe and have a little HOPE in u it will probably lead u to success.
And that leads you to happiness and that finally that leads to other success.
So There should be HOPE, HOPE for light in our life’s and success and there should be another HOPE for not being successful and have the will to try again and again to get it… So no matter what…. never give up to get what u want because I truly believe that U CAN ALWAYS GET WHAT U WANT AND NEED NO EXCEPTIONS !!!! Just believe in yourself.
...creo que el principio y el final de la palabra Hope esta en confiar en uno mismo y es que si no comenzamos por eso, como podemos tener esperanzas en que algo vendra o esperanza en algo que queremos?

Hi Gigi.. I'm ur fan already. So, I keep believing the hope is a attitude. To do something, to believe in something.. you have to do. And do means attitude. I agree with u when u say "you can always get what u want and need"Maybe sometimes, we don't have what we want, is not because we don't believe is just because is not a time or is not the better for us. So, yes, we can always have what we want, but have to be in the correct time, in the correct way... and then.. you have..always.
