An Everyday Expression of Hope and Its Potential

An Everyday Expression of Hope 

A Snowball’s Chance

July 1, 2015 by John Hembree Leave a Comment

snowballs_chance_in_hellOddly, I have had this phrase directed toward me multiple times throughout my life.

“You have a snowball’s chance of doing that.”

I love those words!

When it has been directed toward me regarding something I have determined to accomplish, I always interpret it as a welcomed challenge.

I want to be the guy that would attack any situation, or some overwhelming circumstance with determination with any resource at my disposal.

Regardless, NEVER let people or circumstances tell you that you can’t do something, or that you should not even try.

That one makes me angrier than any other challenge.

To not even try?!

I do not know how to even process those words.

I have a friend who is currently interviewing for various employment positions.

Those closest to them.

Their support system.

The main core and source of encouragement for them, cautioned them to not get their hopes built up, just in case.

What good is hope, unless you build it up, in order to achieve an end result?

Snowball’s chance?

That is a green light to me to go for it and go for it in a big. big, way.

I hope you agree.
