Topic:
Hope And Despair
It is a scientific fact that depression caused by despair impairs our
body's ability to function properly. When we are depressed or in
despair, our body cannot fight off disease, germs, viruses, and other
elements that attack our immune system. When we are depressed or in
despair, our immune system becomes compromised. Experts tell us our
emotions affect our body on a physical, cellular level. Hope in life,
the hope we hold within us, is an emotional and spiritual choice.
Active, positive hope can effect every area of our life including our
physical bodies. Likewise, fear and despair have a negative physical
influence upon us. We have often heard where there is life there is
hope. However, the opposite is also true. Where there is no hope there
is death. A life devoid of hope for the future is a life being lived in
darkness, dread, and emptiness. A life without hope is a life being
lived as if death has become a reality.
