Many Things Are Done With A Hope And A Prayer

Wishing for the best is normal

It is natural to hope for brightness and joy in life

Everyone wants to have success and to be happy. No one wishes for failure and trouble. People need to have hope and maybe a little prayer in their hearts because they know that life is full of problems. People want the best in life. When it doesn’t come, life may seem sad and dismal. Hope and faith need to be maintained in order to keep trying and not give up.

Hope, faith, and prayer can help in trying to make the life choices which are required of everyone.

The people who start brick and mortar businesses as entrepreneurs or others who do online businesses from their homes do so with hope and a prayer. They believe they will make it in their venture. They work hard and expect to win. Some make it, and some do not. It is important to work hard and not give up too soon.

An older couple with a home based business had been audited by the IRS after Trump and the Republicans passed their supposedly GOOD tax bill, which ultimately seemed to benefit mostly wealthy people and large corporations. The claims that regular people were going to benefit did not happen to them. They had never been audited in all the years they had filed taxes. Their expenses for their business had been accepted. They had their taxes done each year by a CPA Tax Accountant who was well versed in all the tax laws. He and they did everything by the books as far as they knew.

Then they were audited during three years of the Trump Presidency for prior taxes. Their expenses suddenly were not allowed. They sent in the tax payment the third time with hope and a prayer (along with an explanatory letter) that the IRS would take pity on them. This was after sending in all the back up information requested, and still being denied. The check did not seem to be cashed quickly so they kept up hope. Then it was cashed. The hope and prayer did not work.

A young couple who had a child who became ill had a hope and a prayer that the child would recover. They did everything they could to help the child. They went to specialists. They tried new procedures. It was not to be, and the child did not recover. It was extremely difficult.

Always planning on attending college, the young high school graduate did not get accepted to any of the universities to which he had applied. He had fully expected that he could attend a big university. His hope and prayer did not work out at first so he attended a community college. After doing well in his first two years, he was able to transfer to a university. His dreams were coming true after all his hopes and prayers.

Sometimes things are just not meant to be. Life is challenging and must be faced and accepted no matter what comes. The outcome is not always happy and successful, but it can be.

Writing is one thing in life that is often done with a hope and a prayer. There are no guarantees that a writer will ever make money from his work. Many authors have written multiple books and received no financial compensation for their efforts. In fact, some people have paid out thousands of dollars for self publishing that did not pay off. Others have been successful and have been rewarded handsomely. They all had hope and possibly a prayer.

Those who write on Medium are generally trying to earn some money. There are thousands of people writing on the platform. The large majority are earning less than $100 a month. They are making pennies a day or possibly a few dollars for nearly full time work. Only about the top six percent or so are making over $100 for their writing on Medium.

If they are able to publish their work to other outlets as side hustles, their writing may be paying for them. If they are only on Medium, the monetary rewards may be few.

Still, the chance is there. Some few writers are earning substantial money and making a full-time income through Medium. They are the fortunate ones with skill, persistence, and a bit of good luck. There is no reason why YOU cannot be one of them, but you have to get LUCKY. Sometimes hope and prayer will not do it and work out.

Life does not always turn out the way we would hope. There will be lots of bad mixed in with the good. Hopefully, the good will eventually outweigh the bad things. We should not give up hope.
