Mind’s got mysterious ways of working. It refuses to see things the way they are. It chooses to create illusions, and it chooses to create perceptions. Hope is one such illusion, Despair is another. The fallacy or fantasy it gets you in can be for your good or bad. Before one can know the nature of the illusion one must be able to distinguish the illusion from reality.
Look at the Illusion called Hope. By the tone of it the word sounds great. It is the fundamental instrument of any kind of creed. Every faith, ideology or cult that is devoid of reason and logic plants itself into the mind of an individual under the illusion called hope and nurtures. A religion gives the hope of afterlife or reincarnation, as a cult gives the hope of nirvana. It is hope that gives perseverance and strength to pursue one’s mindless pursuits. Hope can either lead to a miracle or a disaster. It all depends on the object of hope. Put in simple words, hope is a gamble for miracle at the risk of disaster.
Hope might not always lead to the result one desires but hope is not at fault here. Hope is just a ship that drives you towards the destination in the storms of life. The consequences of such a journey are more or less to be blamed upon your decision to embark upon such a voyage. This is the only risk that is associated with hope. Without hope life stagnates. When all reasons to live life run out and gloom prevails, hope is the only beacon of light that can guide you in the dark.
But as I mentioned earlier, hope by the nature of it is still an illusion. It is flawed and cannot survive inscrutable logic. But again pure logic can never justify a miracle. When there is a dearth of inspiration and abundance of desperation, find hope and stick to it. It might not always lead to the desired consequences but it will definitely get you out of some undesirable situations.
(I wanted to throw some light on other illusions of mind but I lost track,,,,, philosophy, I guess, is not my cup of tea. From now on, I have decided to stick to fiction. I will never bother you again with a mind torturing piece like this.)
