Blogpost #5: Hope vs. Despair

     Who will win, Hope or despair? Does hope defeats despair? or does despair defeats hope? well we will find out in this blog. First of all what is hope? It's a feeling of expectation and desire for a certain thing to happen meaning hope is the source of motivation, confidence or what we called positive emotions. In this blog you will find out what causes people to loss hope or what does people do to regain hope and defeat despair.


     noomii.com is the first article that I read titled "Hope vs. Despair" posted by Wendy Costikyan I learned that despair quickly creeps in to our lives when we are facing circumstances beyond with our limits or control or terrible loss of any kind of things. They said that despair is a natural reaction. People who are in the state of despair is facing the major loss not only that but also from frustration, depression or situations that grow and become seemingly intractable. People living in the state of despair lose confidence they only see obstacle that are seems cannot be overcome that turns us to be discouraged, disheartened, pessimistic and resigned. Inaction is the term that describes despair  in the article that I read because people who are in the stare of despair see no way to overcome it ,whatever good situation is that it will not help people to rise them from despair because the is only one way to rise people from despair and that is "HOPE"- weird right? Hope to despair and despair to hope isn't ridiculous? well they say that to overcome it you just need to think positively,confidently.Hope will arise us because hope gives our spirit or our energy back to life it enables us to see possibilities, to move beyond our fear.


     "10 Tips to Find Meaning and Hope During Times of Despair" is the title of my second article in the site of shakeoffthegrind.com posted by Joe I found plenty enough of tips to expand this blog but this time we will talk about the tips how do we defeat despair. Having a clear life purpose is necessary to make sense of living because having purpose,understanding,clear goal, and etc. lead us to a successful life.We have to live freely without any doubts or regrets we just need to live honestly, choosing the right paths but in choosing decision in our lives we have to be responsible so that can live freely without hindrances in our lives. As I said earlier we have to be more responsible in choosing paths we need to know whether the path were you going is right or wrong. "As we go through life we encounter many risk-factors that steal our joy" so we have be sensitive by knowing right from wrong.
We gain knowledge about what leads to happiness that allow us to experience well-being and what limits our contentment and satisfaction. What it means is that you choices affects your life. Accepting your self is an important ting to do to defeat despair you must accept whats inside of you the use it to as a tool to make your self better try to improve, improve and improve so that you have no doubt to you self . self acceptance is needed by people to be able to move forward in life. Mistakes or loss that you've experience does hurt right? It make us down to despair but instead of  giving up why don't you use your mistakes or loss as a experience then use it as your strength sound ridiculous right? but it means to you the better experience the larger strength you gain like in RGP games right think that your in a game gain more experience to make your self stronger so that you are not easily be take down by your weaknesses. "learn from your mistake" is the fist quotes that comes in my mind when I read this on the internet I hope you understand what I'm trying to say. The last tips that I read is Appreciation self and to others you have to appreciate whats inside of  you strengths and weaknesses accepting other people who made you  horrible. If you accept you self you to accept people around you too.


 "The capacity for hope is the most significant fact of life. It provides human beings with a sense of destination and the energy to get started.” 
-Norman Cousins-
     Acceptance,understanding, and appreciation is the thing we learn about this blog this that I mention are the keys to defeat despair. If we are in the state of despair always to remember that death is not always the answer for that scenario... hope! is always the answer for despair.
