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. As a verb, its definitions include: "expect with confidence" and "to cherish a desire with anticipation".
Among its opposites are dejection, hopelessness and despair.
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. Hopeful people are "like the little engine that could, [because] they keep telling themselves "I think I can, I think I can". Such positive thinking bears fruit when based on a realistic sense of optimism, not on a naive "false hope".
The psychologist C.R. Snyder linked hope to the existence of a goal, combined with a determined plan for reaching that goal:Alfred Adler had similarly argued for the centrality of goal-seeking in human psychology, as too had philosophical anthropologists like Ernst Bloch. Snyder also stressed the link between hope and mental willpower, as well as the need for realistic perception of goals, arguing that the difference between hope and optimism was that the former included practical pathways to an improved future.D. W. Winnicott saw a child's antisocial behaviour as expressing an unconscious hope for management by the wider society, when containment within the immediate family had failed.Object relations theory similarly sees the analytic transference as motivated in part by an unconscious hope that past conflicts and traumas can be dealt with anew.
The People's Action Party "Hope" (Ukrainian: Партія Народної Дії «НАДІЯ») was founded on 18 March 2005, and has a presence in 27 regions and 525 districts of Ukraine. It is headed by Sergei Selifontiev, who created the "light parliamentary movement" in contrast to what he felt was a shady parliament of the day. On the day of its inception, 1,200,000 citizens of Ukraine joined the party.
Hope is a 2014 French drama film directed by Boris Lojkine. It was screened as part of the International Critics' Week section at the 2014 Cannes Film Festival where it won the SACD Award.
Christ he backslapped sin and choke slammed death
The real Rock, then he put the grave in a headlock
And they all had to tap out ‘cause it's all been mapped out
The words like Pro Tools, you'll see the whole thing tracked out
But when I say I get it from him, y'all don't hear me though
But trust that's why I wrestle my sin like Rey Mysterio
See Christians should be showing the word closed caption
Why you like a romance comedy, no action
Real Christians please stand up, go'n ‘head and man up
Even if they blam blam us let's stand there like "and what?"
We on lockdown homie, you see them handcuffs?
We run the race with full horsepower, call us a Ram truck
If you riding through the streets
If you nodding to this beat
I hope you see that I'm alive because he died to set me free
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
If you riding through the streets
If you nodding to this beat
I hope you see that I'm alive because he died to set me free
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
I found out I couldn't save myself all I had was dead words
I died to follow Christ and jumped in the grave head first
See he bled worst, the Rock is divine
Made me a transformer, Optimus Prime
Changed my whole frame up, slayed the grave
And made your boy get low like a razor fade
All that to say he humbled me and daily he will crumble me
Till the day he comes for me making me what he wants to see
I know what want from me, relax yourself
Now add it up, now what you get when you subtract yourself?
I couldn't handle the grave, his wrath was to much trouble
Christ the sacrifice stood in CUT Stunt Double
If you riding through the streets
If you nodding to this beat
I hope you see that I'm alive because he died to set me free
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
If you riding through the streets
If you nodding to this beat
I hope you see that I'm alive because he died to set me free
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
That's why I spit bars of life, you can get life in these bars
Right now, like you doin' a bid in Riker Island
Got punchlines of truth, ad-libs of his glory
Overdubs of love we spit to give him glory
Look, me ain't my focus my boasting's dead
But I know I'm easy to crush like a loaf of bread
So I rhyme about the blood covered over my head
Took the cross off my neck, it's on my shoulder instead
Your boy dead and I only wanna model Him
All I do is retweet every since I have followed Him
My life homie that's been purchased
Find out that ya boy bleed Christ if you just scratch the surface
If you riding through the streets
If you nodding to this beat
I hope you see that I'm alive because he died to set me free
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
If you riding through the streets
If you nodding to this beat
I hope you see that I'm alive because he died to set me free
It's the Christ
Who then saved who then raised who then made me
It's the Christ
