If one truly has lost hope, one would not be on hand to say so.

.

It's all one thing - both tend into one scope -
To live upon Tobacco and on Hope,
The one's but smoke, the other is but wind.

.

.

God puts rainbows in the clouds so that each of us - in the dreariest and most dreaded moments - can see a possibility of hope.

.

Hope is but the dream of those who wake.
