“Hope is the thing with feathers
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.”
That perches in the soul
And sings the tune without the words
And never stops at all.”
Emily Dickinson
“Hope is an optimistic attitude of mind based on an expectation of positive outcomes related to events and circumstances in one's life or the world at large”
“Dr. Barbara L. Fredrickson argues that hope comes into its own when crisis looms, opening us to new creative possibilities. Frederickson argues that with great need comes an unusually wide range of ideas, as well as such positive emotions as happiness and joy, courage, and empowerment, drawn from four different areas of one’s self: from a cognitive, psychological, social, or physical perspective.”

Faith and hope are two words that are often confused, although there is a difference between the two words.
The word ‘faith’ is used in the sense of ‘trust’.
The word ‘hope’ is used in the sense of ‘anticipation’.
A positive attitude originates with faith and trust that what you are anticipating will happen.
Peace and happiness happens when all these things happen in harmony with each other.
