Many say it's paralyzing. I would agree at times. When you have hope in something and it turns out the way you "hoped," you can learn to believe in hope. But when you believe and hope and pray so hard and it doesn't turn out in your favor, it can change you. It can kill you. Most of the times, when you have hope, you do not have proof. You are willing to risk everything just to prove that there's something to hope.
Hope can be relieving. It can give you a light. But let's say the light blew, yo stop hoping. Then what are you? A hollow shell, a lost soul. What are any of us if we didn't hope or believe? Would people of color still be sitting in the back of the bus? Who would Dr. King Jr. be if he didn't "Have a Dream"? Hope is a light, and also a shot in the dark. But mostly thought of as the light in the dark.
