Hope and desperation come as a pair.
 
Desperation is the bed we sleep in, and Hope is the comforter we snuggle beneath in the effort to keep us warm.
 
Yes, there is hope, but only in desperate times.
 
Happy, healthy, safe, actualized people rarely need hope.
 
It is the forlorn, destitute, hard scrabble multitudes that take massive doses of hope.
 
That poor fella needs some bread.
