That is interesting i guess for me its not so much ties to positivity but more literal wishing for a certain outcome
Ala hope you get better
Hope he doesnt do that again etc.

I understand your definition. So theoretically, if you wish for a negative outcome, you would consider it being hopeful?
It feels very weird to say yes to that but i lean towards yes
"i hope the teacher got sick" is what comes to mind
😂😂😂
So in a way, someone who’s depressed and someone who’s not can both be hopeful even though their outlook on life is very different. I get your definition: it’s interesting
Its not set in stone and i will think on it.
I guess i whould say your outlook on the future determines your hope. And losing the ability to habe positive hope puts it into depressed
🤷 Spitballing
Thanks for challenging my view
Spitballing too. In a way, the depressed wishes for a positive outcome (deep down) but his thoughts are mostly negative.
Thanks for the conversation friend. I hope to be able to zap you in the future 😂🫂
