The truth is like the sun shining brightly above us. But some see its light only through mists and clouds, while others choose to remain in the shadow of trees. Thus, we don’t see it the same way. Others see the truth much clearer and brighter, while others refuse to see it at all.
Now some may ask, is it the fault of those under mists and clouds not to see the full light of the sun? Is it their fault to live in the darkness where they are?
I’d say that even those in the shadows may desire, if they wish to go farther and seek something that’s missing in their lives. Though I can’t also deny the possibility that some may not know the way to look further while some may have already decided not to seek beyond where they are.
Now when the time comes for the mist and the clouds to fade, the question is whether they shall choose to see the bright world where they now stand or they would prefer to close their eyes and pretend that they were blind.
The thing about hope is that it’s a positive force that shines the most when it’s dark. When everything’s going well, we hardly notice it’s there. But when things go against us, when our dreams fade and when we see no immediate reprieve from our troubles, that’s when hope does its best work for us.
