HOPE

Last week I saw Shawshank redemption . Many people suggested me about watching this movie . everyone was saying its a sort of must see . Now I realise that they were true . The catch line of the movie was "Fear can hold you prisoner .. HOPE can set you free" . which is true

Long back I was looking for a signature for my mail . while searching in the net I got this line and I put it as my signature . I remember my roommates used to make fun of me saying , you don't know the film yet u put it as ur signature. It was around that time me and my mentor in the US Dave was trying for my US trip . He tried a lot , over a period of about six months to get me there . But it was in vain since there was no funding.

In April or may this year while chatting with Dave I was saying that I don't think I can come over there anymore becoz of this outsourcing and all . By then I have changed my signature . then Dave told me " Don't feel down . I know u believe in hope . Hope about coming here " . Like a Morgan freeman dialogue in Shawshank redemption. Sure he might have noticed my signature.I didn't believe in that . But he did .

He made a last effort . Assigned me some new works for which I will be the sole responsible person and convinced the managers there and when I was least expecting a US chance he got me one. His hope won .when I saw Shawshank redemption for the first time I realised that HOPE is not a dangerous thing, its a wonderful thing . Always Hope for the best .

"Fear can hold you prisoner .. Hope can set you free"
