thank you, Miss Chicken. It is an old Sufi story, I think.. I did not

Above the gates of Hell in Dante's story it says, "abandon all hope, ye
who enter here". Sounds scary, but it is actually sage advice, for
travelling the underworld. In that place, even hope shows its dark
duality.. as fear of the future and a desire for control. Hope, takes you
out of the Now.
I hope you will remember to snip your posts..;)
