The Philosophy Of HOPE




Hope, a four-word letter but with meaning so deep that even words become short describing it. Hope is something that, despite all the darkness you long for light, your tired eyes still see the light shining through a tiny hole.

Hope is that faint light that glows the world filled with utter darkness. Hope is when you know things aren't going your way, but you still believe that a pure revelation would turn its way towards you. Or maybe what you have planned doesn't happen, but something much better than it is anticipating you in the future, but you don't realize it yet. You will come soon. In Shaa Allah.



Hope is the key to live in this world. No individual in this world is happy, but hope rekindled in his soul makes him live in the moment. One can't deny the fact that there are no worries or sadness. Life is the name of living through thousands of battles each day, and each giving us a new lesson to learn. They say happiness doesn't last long, but neither does the sadness.

Hope is something you should carry all the time; it's a sword that helps to fight odds, failures, negativity, etc. I know most of you would even say I am stupid, but believe me, hopelessness is a big disaster because when it comes, it only brings misery, depression, suicidal thoughts, negativity, and all the wrong things. Suddenly you don't want to live on and think of ways to end your life. Still, on the other hand, if you hope for a better future, your worries will soon be dissolved into a puddle of contentment, your sadness will be replaced by happiness, then believe me one day, maybe not too fast but one day it will happen. I'll write dialogue from one of my favorite dramas to help you better understand my point.

If you want to die, then you can – but do it tomorrow. If you still want to kill yourself tomorrow, then do it the day after. If you still have the same pain on the next day, it's still not too late to die the day after or the day after that. If you live your life pass each day like that, a good day will come. Then one day, you will tell yourself, "good that I didn't kill myself that day."

See, I am a nature freak, so let me give you an example from nature. Sunsets tell us that every chapter of life, either worse or happy, should end, and sunrise tells us that no matter how the ending was, you can always begin again.



Hope is at the mercy of Allah, believing His plans for you, trusting Him with everything in you. The eyes that only see the worst side of their circumstances can never feel the contentment even in light situations; at least is what I have witnessed. So open your heart and see the positivity even in the worst condition of your life. I am sure you will be able to find plenty you have to change the view of seeing it because Allah has promised us not once but twice that with every difficulty there is ease. Challenge and comfort come together, so you have to change how you view situations.

I have learned to accept the fact that there are some of my plans for myself and Allah's plans for me. My plots go with my desires, while Allah's plans are according to His infinite wisdom. I need to trust Him with all my heart and remember that what He has planned for me is better than my plans. Always. And whatever my dreams are, I need to have faith in Allah, who is the best handler of our affairs.

Allah's timing is always perfect, it's either we who are being impatient or that thing is not going to benefit us in any way. In both situations, put your affairs in His hands because Allah is the best disposer of affairs. Sooner or later, what is meant for you will find its way to you.
 Believe Him, hope, and do your best, and Allah will do the rest. And remember,
 
"The world is full of suffering, but it is also filled with overcoming it." (Helen Keller)

Always Hope but never expect, want to know why? Then stay tuned.
