The Secret of Hope

The secret of hope 
Is experience.
The never ending
Fifth dimension that
Is life’s gift to us.

Simply grasping
Our memories
Will help foretell
The vague future.

The what ifs
Were answered,
Remember?

Relax,
And think.

Go!

Hope is the prerequisite of empowerment. Experience should lead to optimism. When crisis looms, we tend to fall on what we have to sustain us, mainly faith and experience. // paul
