    Hope and Disappointment Empty Hope and Disappointment

    "It's precisely the disappointing stories, which have no proper ending and therefore no proper meaning, that sound true to life."
    -- Max Frisch


    "Don't get your hopes up!"
    Were you warned of this as a child? What does this say? It says that life is bound to disappoint you. It says, don't aim high because you're not likely to get what you want. It says that we can't expect good things to happen to us.
    As our thinking creates our reality, this kind of thinking dooms us to a mundane existence. It's time to change our stories. Why not focus the immense power of our hearts and minds on bringing to fruition the very best life has to offer? Allow yourself to hope and believe in all possibilities.

    "Hope is the companion of power, and the mother of success; for who so hopes has within him the gift of miracles."
    -- Samuel Smiles


    "The very least you can do in your life is to figure out what you hope for. And the most you can do is live inside that hope. Not admire it from a distance but live right in it, under its roof."
    -- Barbara Kingsolver
