If we can look at the sunset and smile Then we still have Hope If we can find beauty in the colors of a small flower Then we still have Hope If we can find pleasure in the movement of a butterfly Then we still have Hope If the smile of a child can warm our heart Then we still have Hope If we can see the good in other people Then we still have Hope If the rain on a roof top can lull us to sleep Then we still have Hope If the sight of a rainbow makes us stop and stare in wonder Then we still have Hope If we meet new people with excitement and optimism Then we still have Hope If we give people the benefit of a doubt Then we still have Hope If we offer our hand in friendship to others, who have touched our life Then we still have Hope . If receiving an unexpected call or letter, still brings us a pleasant surprise Then we still have Hope If the suffering of others fills us with pain and frustration Then we still have Hope If we refuse to let a friendship die or accept that it must end Then we still have Hope If we look forward to a time and place of quiet and reflection Then we still have Hope If we still buy ornaments, put up the Christmas tree, or cook the turkey Then we still have hope If we still watch love stories or want the endings to be happy Then we still have Hope If we can look to our past and smile Then we still have Hope If, when we are faced with the bad, are told that everything is futile, We can still look up and say "yeah…BUT.." Then we still have Hope Hope is such a marvelous thing. It bends, it twists, it sometimes hides, but rarely does it break. It sustains us when nothing else can. It gives us reason to continue and the courage to move ahead, when we tell ourselves we’d rather give in. Hope puts a smile on our faces when our hearts cannot manage Hope puts our feet on the path when our eyes cannot see Hope moves us to act when our souls are do not know what to do Hope is a wonderful thing, something to be cherished and nurtured, and some-thing that will refresh us in return. It can be found in all of us and it can bring light into the darkest of places. We Must Never lose hope I thought this was a most inspiring writing But I do not know the writer so I will mark it Anonymous. Give me heck if you wish writer.  :
