Well, I'm fuzzy on dichotomies.But feeling hopeful isn't exactly a "nothing."Forcing a positive outlook is also an action.That's the thing about hope, that by definition, it can't die.Hope, much like worry, exists outside of the timeframe of its targeted basis.You can't hope for something that IS happening, right?

Well I guess hope could lead to larger relief from anticipation of relief, and such. But I wouldn't say I try to have hope as a virtue or anything, as a concept I don't really need it. If something bad happens I can just cope or get over it. If bad stuff continuously happens then I might be hoping it'd stop, but I think I would be more depressed/annoyed/angry than hopeful. So its not really an emotion either. And hope sounds like a lie, idk. Like, idk, I guess I do hope the future...
