Hope provides direction and energy to move forward by giving us alternatives, paths, and dreams to follow. With hope, we are halfway to our goals, while without hope we are lost. Hope is what drives us as dreaming, waking people.

1. "Hope is the dream of a waking man."

2. As long as we have hope,

3. we have direction,

4. the energy to move,

5. and the map to move by.

6. We have a hundred alternatives,

7. a thousand paths and infinity of dreams.

8. Hopeful, we are halfway to where we want to go;

9. Hopeless, we are lost forever.
