It is often said that hope keeps us alive. When human beings are disappointed by events and dissatisfied with their lot, they tend to project their hopes into the future: 'Soon... in a few days... in a few months... things will get better.' There is no doubt that hope is the very last thing to be abandoned, but while we hang on, waiting for things to get better, we need to count on something reliable. In order to hang on, we need not only to believe, but also to love, which maintains the life within us and energises us. Otherwise our hope is no more than a flight from reality, and one day it will also abandon us. If we do not want to lose hope, we must keep faith and love forever alive within us and call on them for help when difficulties arise. Whatever happens, try to cling to faith and love, as this will enable you to keep hope to the very end.
