The hope that the future holds is not something I learned in one day. It came little by little, through life, through mistakes, and mostly through my parents. Growing up, life was not easy or smooth the way people post it online today. Some days were okay, some days were confusing, and some days were just hard. But even with all that, my parents always believed tomorrow would be better, even when they didn’t know how.
My parents never had big money or fancy plans, but they had strong minds. My father used to say things like, “Just keep moving, life will answer you later.” At that time, I didn’t understand what he meant. I was young and only thinking about today. But now, those words come back to me when I feel tired or lost. My mother, on the other hand, taught me endurance. She believed patience could carry you where strength cannot. She never rushed life. She trusted time.
There were many moments I doubted myself. School pressure, fear of failure, fear of not becoming anything meaningful. Sometimes I asked myself if all this stress was even worth it. I compared my life to others and felt behind. But when I remembered where my parents started from, I realized progress does not look the same for everyone. They struggled quietly, without social media, without applause, yet they kept going.
Hope, for me, is not excitement. It is calm. It is the small decision to wake up and try again even when nothing seems to change. It is studying when motivation is gone. It is saving little money even when it feels useless. It is trusting that effort never truly wastes, even if results delay.
The future scares me sometimes, I won’t lie. There are days I overthink too much. But I also know the future carries room to grow, to learn, and to become better than who I am today. My parents taught me that hope does not mean life will be easy. It means you will be strong enough to face whatever comes.
When I think of tomorrow now, I don’t dream of perfection. I dream of stability, peace, and self-respect. I dream of standing on my own, helping others the way my parents helped me. The future is unknown, yes, but I still believe in it. Because hope is the one thing life hasn’t taken from me.
