The truth of hope

Hope is a strong thing, but it comes with a price. You may hope with all your heart for change. You may hope for better days just to be let down and, thus, that hope fades, and you're left with loneliness. While there is nothing wrong with hope, we're aware that nothing is granted, nothing is guaranteed, there isn't always a happy ending. So, while you cling onto that last thread know it may end to nowhere, I do not say these words in malice, but as a precaution, you may hope with all of your heart just for everything to fall apart so while hope is important to know that hope alone does not guarantee safety nor happiness you must rely on yourself your strength you may be alone on your journey, but hope alone may not save you but yourself.
