Hope and Fear in The Kite Runner

Hope and fear are two very powerful emotions and can influence people in many ways. Thing is what exactly is hope and fear? How does it influence people in many ways and why are those two emotions so strong? The hopes you have are your desires for wanting something to happen. It’s also an element that goes along with making your dreams and goals in life. Sometimes hope is nothing more than the last resort of what you can do to keep holding on to an idea that can sometimes seem unreal. The anticipations one can have can last a lifetime but they will continue to believe until something in their life has got in the way or has simply showed them that hoping for that is pointless. Most people just want to and do believe that everything will turn out for the best. Just like Martin Luther King Jr’s “I have a dream speech”. MLK says about how “the negro still is not free”. After all those years even with the Declaration of Independence that states that “all men, yes, black men as well as white men, would be guaranteed the ‘unalienable rights’ of ‘Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.’” They are not equal. But MLK knows that with the beliefs he has and the hope of everyone joining hands they will be able to “sing in the words of the old Negro spiritual;’ Free at last! Free at last! Thank god almighty! We are free at last!’”
Hope is what motivates you to make your dreams come true. Dreams can also create new hopes. Some people can even argue that hopes and dreams are alike. They are both something that you want or don’t want to happen in your life. But as life goes on, we find ourselves turning our heads to different ideas and will have new experiences. That can cause everything to change and it makes new dreams. “You may say I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one. I hope someday you'll join us. And the world will live as one” (John Lennon). This is a quote from the song “Imagine” written by John Lennon. It is about how the world would be a more peaceful place if
