[0:00] Hope is one of those words that in the

[0:01] right context it it's a very positive

[0:04] thing or or concept or idea, but in in a

[0:08] lot of contexts it's actually rather

[0:10] not. It's very disempowering, right?

[0:12] Hope that you know this is obviously not

[0:14] good enough. So let's just hope sometime

[0:16] sometime later it is. Sometime later

[0:18] life is better, right? Has a little bit

[0:20] of that flavor to it.

[0:23] If you can relate to that, that feeling

[0:25] of kind of waiting for something happens

[0:29] all the time. Happens all day long in in

[0:31] thought. That's how thought functions,

[0:33] right? Um

[0:35] waiting until I get home, waiting until

[0:37] the person finally gives me what I want,

[0:40] whoever that person is, whether it's my

[0:41] boss or a co-orker or my lover, waiting

[0:44] for the next meal, waiting to feel some

[0:47] pleasure that I'm imagining is going to

[0:48] happen because I'm waiting for a certain

[0:50] event. Um, waiting for relief. Like it's

[0:53] just kind of waiting.
