HOPE

       After having a chat with my elder sister, she told me about things...many of them. But one particular issue caught my attention.

        

       "The poor has hope but the rich doesn't. "

       When things aren't going on well for the poor man, he holds unto that faith he has, that things will surely be well. He has hope that his situation will get better someday. 

        But because that rich man has it all, he thinks when situations get worse, he has no where to turn to. When things don't go well for him, he thinks about nothing but suicide. (Some call it pride, ego, name them...) 

         The poor man lives his life hoping that someday, he will get what he needs and so he hopes for it. So he fights through that hardship. He hopes for a better future.

          The rich man lives his life, knowing he has it all. This is especially with those who grow or grew up in wealth. They don't or didn't know how much sweat and sacrifices that have been put in those efforts to become rich. So they so much don't know what hardship is.

           You'll know the type of home a child comes from, as soon as he or she speaks or behaves. 

            We do have rich children who are humble, so as poor children who are proud. It all depends on how they've been brought up.

             Well, my sister continued to tell me about a rich friend who told her that, "All his life, he had known no hardship." He had and still has it all. He lives his life knowing that no matter what happens, he will get what he wants.

              With such a person, his life has been and is still an easy one. 

              The question is: What do you think will happen to this person when situations change? When things begin to fall out of place and order? When he loses everything? When he gets no more of what he used to get?

               Suicide? Name them...

               There's this woman who also said, "Life isn't an easy one. No matter what, you'll find difficulties. All you need to do is to bring yourself together and pull through those difficulties."

                If we all know how to hope, we'll be able to push through difficulties. No matter what and how we started with and from, we are all supposed to HOPE.

                   HOPE, that no matter what, you'll make it... Or you will make it again.

Thank you.
