Many survival stories include an element of helplessness. When you’re far from civilization, hurt, unable to move, there’s little you can do to keep yourself alive. It’s helplessness that sets in when things get really, really bad. But there’s another feeling, however dim, that keeps you going: hope. Though you may be unable to help yourself in the face of extreme danger, there’s comfort in knowing that someone out there may be looking for you. That comfort that hope can be what allows you to survive. And if you get into trouble in a place where Search and Rescue is accessible, that hope multiplies.
