A Powerful Phenomenon

Segmund
By Segmund

All of us human beings follow a certain pattern of behavior. We all are goal-oriented. Our behavior, for the most part, is driven by a certain drive or drives.

Sometimes, we appear to slow down, sometimes we even stop moving forward.

What is that one phenomenon which keeps every human mortal moving forward? What is it, that if it goes away, leaves the man as good as dead?

ambition and focus.

setting appropriate goals. chase too many pipe dreams, and you're as good as dead.

also, similar to what Blosted said, it's a big concrete jungle out there. get smart or fade away in the annals of history..

It is hope. And different people hope for different things.

Why hope? Simple, because most people want to achieve something, if there is no reason to believe that this can happen, there is no reason to continue.

It is human to want.

Not always true, some people live a Mechanical life to make money for them nothing to hope. All they want is money and more money. I don’t call it living, but many do.

People commit suicide when they don’t have any hope in life.

Even to stay alive you must have hope for living and bettering your life. Those who lose hope of life itself are generally the ones who turn to self destruction.

Let us talk about it. The phenomenon I meant, as many of us here have already pointed out quite correctly, is hope.

It is hope that keeps us going. The reason why I chose not to start talking about it outright was for you to brainstorm a little.

The power of hope is infinite. I would like to know your opinions on why hope is so crucial to human life. I would then share with you my own viewpoint and observation.

I assert that without hope, no human can be called truly alive. Do you agree, if you why? If you dont, why not?

Where there is a will there is a way. Hoping for the light at the end of the Tunnel.
