Hoping is for everyone.
Those homeless kids? They might be hoping for a meal tonight. That kid who keeps getting picked on? He's probably hoping to be left alone. That little girl who hears her parents arguing? She might be hoping that they'd just make up.
Hoping keeps people alive, in a way.
For example, when the Americans during the 1700's wanted their freedom from Britain, they started a war. They lost so many battles. If they had given up hope, then America would've still been under British rule.
If the world gave up hope when Hitler was massacring those Jews, there would be no more Jews left in the world, probably. Germany might have still been a dictatorship.
Hoping and wishing are almost the same. ALMOST. Wishing is almost always useless, face it. Who would hear and care about your wishes anyways? Wishes are for all sorts of things that we know we can't have, and that are almost always unrealistic. 'I wish I could be a millionaire.' 'I wish I could fly.' 'I wish I could eat as many pizzas as I'd like without getting full.'
Hopes are more realistic, more thoughtful, and much easier to achieve. 'I hope my mom stays alive.' 'I hope I can get this job interview.' 'I hope I can go to the park today.'
I hope this helps your answer! Good luck!
