Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul.
And sings the tune
Without the words,
And never stops at all.
- Emily Dickinson
Little things can become the inspiration for the next step in your life and your hope will help you achieve the success. Small deeds of someone, motivational sayings of someone, reading a book written by someone, or watching a movie, etc. can inspire us to do the things we always wanted to do or just start a new thing in life. But along with the inspiration we also need the hope within us to be successful in what we do. I just finished reading a book called ‘Aash’ (hope) by Pradip Man Tulachan. As the title of book, Aash, the writer has wonderfully placed the words in perfect paragraph showing the importance of that little thing called hope in one’s life to become successful.
The book revolves round the one major character, Amar, who was born in the poor family in one of the rural mountainous region. His childhood fades away amidst poverty and hunger but along with many difficulties he manages to study. He has a dream of becoming an engineer and helping his village to develop so that no more children will spend their childhood in insufficiency, inadequacy and poverty. But he always has this little but strong hope within himself that one day he will be successful and everything will turn right. And in the end of the book his hope turns into his success.
You can object my saying because it’s just a book and anything can happen in the book. You can make whatever story you want to make. But the book and its character is just an example I wanted to give. Hope is that power booster for the weak hearts that supports and energize them to do more, try a little more expecting the result they want to be.
After the huge storm, even the buds of the flowers still have hope that there will be nice, warm sunshine to recharge life in them again. It is said that after the huge rain there will come sun and also it is known to all of us that every dog has its day. It’s just a cycle of life, sadness and happiness, bad day and good day, loneliness and togetherness or anything else will simply revolve right round. If you are sad one day, you might get happy the other day. The only thing that matters is the hope within you and the belief in yourself.
Scared and sacred are spelled with the same letters. Awful proceeds from the same root word as awesome. Terrify and terrific. Every negative experience holds the seed of transformation.
- Alan Cohen
Optimism is the faith that leads to achievement. Nothing can be done without hope and confidence.
- Helen Keller
Hope is what led a band of colonists to rise up against an empire; what led the greatest of generations to free a continent and heal a nation; what led young women and young men to sit at lunch counters and brave fire hoses and march through Selma and Montgomery for freedom's cause. Hope is what led me here today -- with a father from Kenya, a mother from Kansas; and a story that could only happen in the United States of America. Hope is the bedrock of this nation; the belief that our destiny will not be written for us, but by us; by all those men and women who are not content to settle for the world as it is; who have courage to remake the world as it should be.

I grew more hopes within me after reading these great sayings of great people. I wanted to share these sayings with everyone hoping that those who read this will be inspired a bit to hope more because when you hope, nothing is impossible. Hope is the only thing that does not let your confidence die within you. As day comes after night, good happens after bad. With the hope inside you, you can easily achieve what you want to because hope gives you the strength that you require making your dream come true.
