Hope is like a fire that burns
It does not matter what pain has flooded your fire
how you’ve failed to add tinder
If people have tried to smolder it
If you have tried to let it burn or put it out
If it has burned your hands
The Fire will return. It may be a small candle that is barely flickering in the wind
it may be a campfire lighting up the night
It may be a forest fire burning down everything to start again.
there are eyes in hurricanes and breaks in the rain. pain fades and burns heal. No matter what happens, you have lived to see another day
The fire will reappear but you will not see it if you have your eyes closed.
You cannot see anything through a blindfold of despair.
You have to remove the blindfold to see the hope. You may see a candle or a campfire or a forest burning to the ground. Any fire is light in the darkness. Any amount of Hope is progress. So remove your blindfold and search for the fire. Light it with sticks you have scrounged from the ground. Burn your clothes if you have to and lie **** on the ground. Make the fire return even if you get burnt.
