The title is a question I think everyone should ask themselves. After all, nobody knows you better than yourself. At least, usually. In the end those who seem to can probably read your aura or something making them technically not any more knowledge-able about you than anyone else who can read or see things you can not. Like how you act, or talk, or write, or sing, or play or fight. Anything you do can hint at who you are, but still, seeing the aura probably is more direct, and probably hints closer to the true you hidden behind all the acting we are taught to do as children.
Back to the question though, where do yo see hope? I see hope when I beat a video game. I see hope when I get a new pinball high score. I see hope in flowers, lights that still come on when I flip the switch at night, glow-in-the-dark stones and LEGOs. I see hope in birds and squirrels, dogs, cats and deer, and other animals as they continue to live their lives often with just a vague notion of the danger of a road, and hardly any good sense to look both ways or stand still and wait for a car to pass. I see hope when I pass by a car on the side of the road with a flat, and another car behind it belonging to the person changing the flat. I see hope when people give money to children raising money for ball games, mission trips, or just their local girl scout group so they can do fun things. I see hope in sunrise, and sunset. I see hope when I look up after dark and see the constellation Orion and his 'belt'. I see hope when I look up at the moon. I see hope in movies with a happy ending, or books with a happy ending. I see hope when I find a job opportunity that I didn't see a week ago, and they accept my application. I see hope when my wife smiles. I see hope when I make a goofy face in the mirror. I see hope when I put on my hawaiian shirt my wife made.
There is more. Hope in little, daily miracles that I can find every day I look. So I ask you, where do you see hope?
