What is Hope?

Definition: The feeling that what is wanted can be had or that events will turn out for the best.

*But I can’t tell you what hope is, I have no idea.

-Hope can be the ability to take the next step.
-Hope can be the visit from you grandchildren.
-Hope can even be the one or two degree rise during the winter.

*But I can’t tell you what hope is, I have no idea.

It is your hope, whether it is a definition or a feeling, that keeps you going.
So the question is: What is hope to you?
