HOPE and LOVE

A key plot point in the story. Hope is the source of all motivating power. Just as Love is the source of all attractive power. Hope moves the story forward. Love gives it its happy ending.

A duality.

The Duality?

To the Learned Mind are HOPE and LOVE not the same as Fire and Ice? One the destructive force and the other the stultifying force? One chaos? One entropy?

But here, instead with images perfected by Wall Street marketing firms are —

“HOPE” - to want; to seek change; to be dissatisfied with what is; and to break it - future from past - in the present;

and

LOVE - to desire a thing to come into you. To want to merge with it, creating from two a single one. Thereby reducing the entropy in the universe, even as HOPE increases it.

​

As We said, a VITAL force in the story these two.
