Journal 1 - HOPE
I can't explain it but it lingers inside my brain. Bear in mind I don't claim to be anything special, I'm just an ordinary man , living an ordinary life. This "thing" is eating me alive day by day , every night before I go to sleep and it hits me heavy when I wake up late in the mornings. Ladies and gentlemen , maybe that's what it feels like to lose hope. Hope is a beautiful word , or should I say there best thing to ever happen to a conscious mind. I don't remember what it feels like to be hopeful. I don't remember when I last woke up hoping for something good to happen which will boost my morale. Now it just feels like I'm waking up just because I should wake and not to chase goals anymore. Ladies and Gentlemen, I have observed that life tends to become an empty vessel ones you pour out all those hopes and expectations you had when you were a gleeful child. Maybe the world is too advanced for me or maybe I'm lazy as an internet "Sigma" would put it. To lose hope is to lose your will to live and to achieve even the bare minimum. When you lose hope; along with it comes guilt , a lot of guilt. Guilty of wasting away your life as a mere chunk of flesh roaming around.
So what should I be hopeful about.?
That my father would come back to life and my family won't shatter.?
That I could rewind back time just so I could cherish my sweet memories with him?
All that doesn't matter now. It's not supposed to matter. My message today will be to grip your hopes tight and never let anyone/anything take that away from you.
