“My hope awaits Thee, Lord. Expecting Thee is the only content and meaning of my tomorrow and the day after tomorrow. The grass expects the dew and is not disappointed. The mountain expects the thunder and is not disappointed. The mole in the ground expects its meal and is not disappointed. Thou dost fulfill the expectations of all beings. I am expecting Thee, and Thou art coming to meet me. With the same haste that I am approaching Thee, Thou art coming toward me. What is tomorrow, children of earth, except your hope. If you eradicate all your hope, your desire to see tomorrow dawn will die. Do not grumble against heaven because it does not fulfill all your hopes. Grumble against yourselves, because you do not know how to hope. Heaven does not fulfill hopes but hope. The most sublime and steadfast hope heaven always fulfills. Do not grumble against heaven because it does not see the benefits for your family and your factions or enter into your intrigues against one another. Heaven is discerning and merciful. It is discerning for anything good in any faction, and is merciful towards your infirmity, provided that good-will accompanies it.”
