When I was young there was a popular picture sybolizing the virtue of hope,
The picture was of an anchor that was attached to a large strong rope.
It was a simple picture, only the large anchor was on display,
It was explained to me that the anchor was the artist's symbol of hope in a meaningful way,
It shows that the anchor can keep a ship from being tossed about in the midst of storms,
And that is what hope can do, it keeps us from being tossed about in the midst of whatever uncertainty forms.
Whenever uncertainty brings out a stormy time,
I remember that picture of the anchor, I have it pictured in my mind.
