Hope breathes in life (FHL: Faith > Hope > Life)
There is hope, so there is life; not the other way around, like Tolstoy (TJKCB notes)
"Hope breathes in life" captures the essence of how hope animates and sustains our existence. It suggests that hope is not just a passive element but an active and life-giving force. It implies that hope is an integral part of our being, like the very breath that keeps us alive.
While Tolstoy eloquently explores the profound depths of life, it's essential to recognize that hope, like a guiding light, contributes to our resilience and the belief that circumstances can improve. In the tapestry of life, hope weaves a thread that connects us to the possibility of a brighter tomorrow. So, in the face of suffering and challenges, holding onto hope becomes a beacon that not only sustains us but also propels us forward on the journey of life.
The positive outlook that hope can bring to life is a perspective that focuses on the potential for improvement and the resilience that hope can provide in challenging circumstances.
In response to Tolstoy's perspective, which acknowledges the depth of life, the divine, and the acceptance of suffering, my line could be seen as a complement. While Tolstoy delves into the profound aspects of existence, my statement adds another layer by highlighting the driving force of hope, suggesting that hope itself is a vital component of our experience of life.

Meaning: As long as you are alive, there is hope as your situation may improve
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This saying was found in antiquity.
Millennia later, Tolstoy expounded: "Life is everything. Life is God.
Everything changes and moves and that movement is God. And while there is life
there is joy in consciousness of the divine. To love life is to love God. Harder
and more blessed than all else is to love this life in one's sufferings, in
innocent sufferings."
He mentioned dukkah and missed hope. He could be a Buddhist :-)
