The value of hope 
+++++++++++++++++++<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hope does not come with a guarantee. It comes with something much more powerful and enriching to life, which is challenge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Hope is yours to choose, at any time, in any situation. Yet the value of hope is not in acquiring it, but in rising to its challenge. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Set hope before yourself where it can constantly pull you forward. Let the power of its positive, compelling challenge surge through every part of your being. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Speak with hope, act with hope, live with hope, but don’t expect hope to do the work. That’s your job, as indeed it must be. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For the real value of hope is not in what it gives you, but in what it compels you to give. Hope is a challenge you cannot turn away from, a challenge to be your best. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Dare to look forward with great hope. Then step up and work through the rewarding challenge that hope so graciously provides. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
