It seems as if despair is more detailed than hope...and more real. ??
I love how much thought you put into each of your drawings >w<
Utmost respect and admiration from me!
~ Inaction can lead to despair, but the opposite, that despair leads to inaction, is also true.
~ Hope leads to action, and action can lead to hope.
Both of these can be self-sustaining cycles until acted upon by an outside force. Both Hope and Despair are emotions everyone has experience with to some degree or another - I think anyone can relate to this on a very deep level, and should be challenged by it as well. Looking through the comments I see some can take different meanings from their life experiences, all of which are valid.
Now for my little digression - Before the uneducated make the leap, despair is an emotion but depression is not. Depression is a mental state or condition with various causes, many of them chemical, that does not act like an emotion. In short never tell someone who is suffering from depression to just buck-up, it isn't so bad, or other facile words of encouragement, it is not that simple.
