Hope for the Hopeless

    Hope is an amazing thing. It can take you from the epitome of depression to a belly laugh. It is like the summer sunshine on a cold winter's day. It can rescue a suicidal teen, mend a broken marriage, heal a wounded heart, and save a lost soul. Many people in this world today feel like hope is only for the weak. They see it as a crutch for those who can not do this life alone. However, I see it this way: The only people who don't need hope are those who think they are in control. However, once you realize that you are, in fact, not in control, you begin to see hope as a beautiful and vital possession.
