Hope


HOPE

HOPE :
Having Optimistic Patterns Expectations
Seeing darkness expecting the dawn
Seeing evil expecting redemption
Feeling resistance expecting triumph
Having sinned expecting to overcome


HOPELESSNESS:
Hope lost forgotten despairing
Living in the moment without a future
Falling in air grasping at wind
Struggling with burdens without relief
seeing in every sight a catastrophe fomenting


RESOLUTION:
Sin is but hopeless grasping
A mad striving sown in despair
Holiness results from a sight
Of the Divine by a living expectation

LESSON REMEMBERED:
As Don Quixote battled windmills
So have I attacked a neighbor’s sins
And I have flayed at mine without success
For holiness is hatched from hope
while evil springs as surely from despair
So I must battle in hope for the spread of hope
