What would mankind do without hope or expectation ?
There is always something to look forward to, be it self or nation.
Things change like the weather: they turn bad, get better, stay the same,
if we can't master any of this, we only have ourselves to blame.

Hope is what keeps us going from day to day, or we would be lost-
we have to make the best of our lives, muster each problem at any cost.
Nothing stays steady there is always something to upset our thinking,
yet, surely, we must find a view that keeps our eyes from blinking.

To look for a better world is one is one of the quests on our mind,
our wishes should be fulfilled and that nature will be very kind.
Of course, there will be upsets we are expected to master,
while we hope all will go well and there is no threat of disaster.

To be an Optimist will greatly help to face the daily grind,
it will aid to overcome the vicissitudes and clear the mind.
Hope springs eternal, ever since there was another rising sun :
to keep thinking good thoughts will be beneficial to everyone !
