Why "hope" is always contrary to fact?

Been a long time, many leaders talk about "hope" in different languages. This indicates that the "hope" is something that is actually possessed by every human being. It can even be said that the healthy human would have a "hope", "hope" associated with himself and with others. when "hope" does not become reality it all changed drastically. who was fond of eating so not fond of eating, which was healthy so not healthy, etc.. This means that any expectations about what should not be too far from reality that we have the potential to cause frustration when trying to reach. "Hope"is not allowed to become rigid and must always be ready to be changed in accordance with changing realities that can occur at any time, whether the reality outside us and within us. then how do not get frustrated, when the failure came to greet us? whether the luck factor is also a big influence in it?

Actually my friend hope is unable to be true if you don't have faith that something that you want to is to come. Meaning your hoping in a certain thing that you cannot see, think and touch until it is to true in your naked eye. Even in our prayer we are hoping that something happen or the result will come but need your faith to be true your prayer.... Our blessed hope that certain and true to come is the 2nd coming of Jesus Christ.

At some point, if a person's hope is changing with circumstances, it is not hope but rather wishful thinking. Typically hope from the heart is strong and will stand up to trial. I would say that every person has the capacity to hope, but many do not use that capacity. Many who have had hope at one time have been beaten down, and have now lost their hope. I think it can be flamed back into existence.

hope everyone owned although the person does not admit it, but hope is a desire that we wish to achieve in life. sometimes what we expect does not match the reality in because of the circumstances. and certainly because we are not destined to get the hope that despite our best efforts and as much as possible. for not frustrated, face reality with sincerity and positive thinking that tomorrow can be better.

Hope is something that we wished would happen. Fact is reality. I think this is the basic reason why this two things are on the opposite side of each other.

It's ok and natural to get frustrated when failure comes, what matters most is how are you going to overcome it and when.

Hope will always be that part of us that will always long for the better while fact is always that concrete evidence that is reality. Facts can be considered an absolute truth while hope might or might not be. It's still pending in our minds. "I hope I get an 'A' on this exam." or "I hope it all turns out well." are examples of hopes. However, you have a good point on what "hope" is.

I'm not sure that I understand all that you are saying but there is some wisdom there! I get the feeling that hope is actually connected to Murphy's Law, hence the "contrary to fact" part that you mention. Certainly it seems to be much more common to have our hopes dashed, rather than fulfilled.

There are these three traits that God want us to have, LOVE,HOPE,Faith. With hope in our heart would mean giving up and surrendering. One must have even the slightest hope in his heart in order not to be frustrated. Reality is what hope is all about. It's a manifestation of what we had wanted and hoped for.It's a creation, not by magic,it's what we see, what we experiencing. Reality is the end result of HOPE.Everything will be impossible if Hope is not with us.

Hi, Hope is sweet that's why we always have hope something all the time, with out hope there is nothing in our life. Always try to keep hope which can be reachable. Don't keep hope at a high altitude. You must always try hard, devote and dedicate to fulfil your hope to a reality. If u frustrate more you might end-up loosing hope. We must always have luck to fuifil our hope.
