To motivate or inspire a soul requires hope. To lift a weary body up off the floor requires hope. To push an individual to greatness requires hope. To ask for something requires hope that it might be received. To attempt anything requires hope that it can be accomplished. To wake up requires hope, and to lie down at night requires hope that in the morning, eyes will again open wide. Hope is what makes us move. It is what drives our steps, our efforts, our prayers, and our dreams. Hope is the fuel that ignites our inner fires. Without hope, humanity would grow cold and die.
