Hope...

Hope is a very powerful tool. Unfortunate enough to be the last item trapped inside the Pandora box, one may imagine how much impact and influence it could have had on the people in ancient Greek mythology. It corrupts the strong and encourages the weak. It consumes the heart and illudes the mind. It throws you a thin line to hold on to, and yet it might just snap anytime, causing you to fall from your grace and suffer even more damage to your existing wounds. Doesn't it break your heart when what you hope for doesn't materalise? Don't you feel devastated when your high hopes all amount to nothing? A little hope can inspire and motivate a person. Overdose may prove to be toxic, fatal or even suicidal. How many ppl have fallen into this trap, intentionally or unintentionally? One should never pin too much hope on anything, instead I feel that ppl should be more prepared for the worst. It hurt less. Why hope for anything when you can't determine the outcome? And if you can change it, is there anymore need for hope? I give up on that a very long time ago when I realise that luck has forsaken me. I'll rather take the pain, than to let it escalate and become even more agonising. Will you now rather be hopeful or hopeless? Hope is dangerous. Handle it with care.

I just wanna live. Don't really care about the things that they say. Don't really care about what happens to me. I just wanna live. Just wanna live... (quoted from the song I just wanna live by Good Charlotte)
