And then there is this: hope. It is an exciting emotion, and has many names; they call it evil, for it draws out a person’s sufferings. They call it a liar, because it lets us see only what we want to see, and that it bears no logic. But hope, to me, is a jubilant twisting in the stomach that we feel in our spirits. The senses awaken and revel in it, and the soul jiggles and dances. To truly hope is to risk enduring pain, but even that is something for us to rejoice in, for what is happiness without sadness? There are but rags and riches, winters and summers, and a person has to be lost before he is found. The truth of everything is this – there cannot be one without the other, so why not celebrate both?
Oh, the wisdom the younger me used to have! :P
I did not win anything, nor did i get shortlisted, but these are words that i still stand by and believe in.
Have a GREAT day, you all!
