Hope

I believe hope means never to give up on a brighter future.
"Hope is one leg of a three-legged stool, together with faith and charity. These three stabilize our lives regardless of the rough or uneven surfaces we might encounter at the time . . .
"There may be times when we must make a courageous decision to hope even when everything around us contradicts this hope.
"The things we hope for lead us to faith, while the things we hope in lead us to charity. The three qualities—faith, hope, and charity—working together, grounded on the truth and light of the restored gospel of Jesus Christ, lead us to abound in good works. 
 
^{( President Dieter F Uchtdorff "The infinite Power of Hope" October 2008)}
