Hope: An infinite loop

Why is hope an infinite loop?

I walked around the path of darkness, assuming light would find me. I always had faith in God and his miracles. Little miracles, such as sometimes unknowingly getting late for work, only to later read the news that there was an accident on the path towards my workplace. Or when I desperately needed a job and found one after nearly exhausting all my resources, reaching the last straw, the last hope.

So today, as I found myself in darkness, I had this hope that now, when the time had come for God to support me, he surely would. We are always reminded, with words ingrained in our minds, to never lose hope, always trust, and believe that things will turn out okay. Maybe not great, but okay enough to survive.

But why do we have that hope? Is it because we actually have faith and trust in God, or is it just because we don’t want to go against the mighty force? Sometimes, it’s just because it seems like the easiest path to take. Trust should always develop from deep within the heart, not because there is nothing else left or because it’s comfortable.

I believe people never want troubles, not only the actual troubles they face but also the strain of someone challenging their thoughts, beliefs, and varied opinions. The best way to be happy is to trust yourself, your philosophies, and viewpoints. I know light will find me. Not because it is its job to discover its own, but because it wouldn’t wish for some of its own to get lost amid the darkness and isolation of despair. The loop continues, and life keeps giving you new challenges. The cycle is never-ending, and you win some, you lose some.

Hope: An infinite loop. It’s permanent, solid, and unbroken.
