The Burden of Hope

Aldom

Sometimes in life, all we have left is hope. When hope goes we have nothing. I know because when my son died I lost hope for several years. Thankfully, recently hope has returned and my life is better for it.

Hope is the only thing that has kept me going at difficult times of my life. I imagine hope is all that keeps the people going when they are living through desperate times brought about by a cruel war.

Absolutely.

But what a lot is resting on that word

Hope is the only thing that has kept me going at difficult times of my life. I imagine hope is all that keeps the people going when they are living through desperate times brought about by a cruel war.

I don’t believe that hope is ever a burden, far from it.
