self improvement

Hope, hopefully… I hope

I hope I can buy a new house, I hope I can find a new job, I hope my health will improve, I HOPE…

I have the feeling that this word, one of the most used in every day conversations, is somewhat misinterpreted. In many cases hope is associated with the poor, the weak, a person belonging to lower social classes where there is nothing else to do but “to have some hope”, things will change, maybe.

There is a collective belief, I asked many people about this, that makes a person who hopes something to be de-classed to a rather negative human being. - If you hope something it means that you don’t have this, or that, you are not so strong, well, you don’t have money, you can’t buy it -

Some people hope the world will change for a better place for mankind. - They are dreamers, they must work hard without so many butterflies in their head, let’s be realistic –

I am ashamed to confess that this word triggered my mind to visualise very similar pictures, too, since one day, driven by my continuous questioning on everything, I took a dictionary.

I wanted to understand what really hope means. Here it is:

1. To wish for something with expectation of its fulfilment.

2. To have confidence; trust.

We are talking here about expectation and trust, fulfilment, confidence. I quickly realized that this is positive thinking, manifestation, inner power.

The common place “the weak hopes, the strong takes” now has lost entirely its foundations. At this point I started to understand how this word has been misused for generations. Hope can be exchanged with “wish” or better, “I command to the universe”, it’s a word of power, not of fearful resignation, it’s a statement that you will have what you want in your life, and that you will use all your immense capabilities to achieve it.

I give you an advice.

The next time you say “I hope”, rise your head fearless and look life straight in its eyes, everything you wish will be yours by right.
