There's Always Hope

​Life is like a river that is ever flowing and changing
 which is an excellent reason
 for us to always have hope.
Things can
 and do change
 even when it seems impossible.

Don't have what you want today?
 Doesn't mean you never will,
 so don't give up.
 Your heart's desire
 just might be right around the corner.

Having a bad day? 
Tomorrow may be wonderful and then some!
Is the way cloudy?
 Don't know which way to go,
 or what to do?
 Sit tight.
 Sunshine
 and answers
 may greet you in the morning.

Have no reason to smile today?
 You may be all smiles tomorrow.
 It's amazing
 how fast
 things can change!
​
Tried something today and didn't succeed?
 It's okay.
 Just try again.
There are other ways.

Has happiness eluded you today?
 Find happiness in the fact
 that it's not going to elude you everyday.
 It will be back.
Feeling disappointed?
 It will pass.
 You may have the surprise of your life
 tomorrow.

Feeling fearful?
 Tomorrow you may have the courage of a lion!
Need help today
and there is none?
 Who knows?
 You might have more than you can use tomorrow.

Have nothing but questions today? 
Maybe you will have all answers tomorrow.
Needs not being met today? 
They may be gone by tomorrow.

No matter what the situation is
 there is always hope.
 Even if you are disappointed
 it's still much better to have hope
 and LIVE IN HOPE,
 than live in self defeating hopelessness.

You can live without many things
 but hope isn’t one of them.
 So hold onto it with all your heart
 and all your strength
 and remember
THERE IS ALWAYS HOPE 
 AND THERE'S ALWAYS TOMORROW...
