Hope of gain is more cheerful than the gain. <br />Hope of love is more charming than the love. <br />Hope of life is more assuring than the life. <br />Being slave to hopes, we enjoy most <br /> <br />Fear of loss is more dreadful than the loss. <br />Fear of pain is more painful than the pain. <br />Fear of death is more horrible than the death. <br />Being slave to fears, we suffer most. <br />04.04.2008<br /><br />Rm.Shanmugam Chettiar.<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/hopes-and-fears-hook-us/
