Red Dog said:I must respectfully disagree with you. To predict something (whether it's an outcome, the weather, or what might happen next) takes thought, logic and analysis. Maybe all it takes is that "gut" feeling. Hoping something will happen is going with your emotions and totally disregarding logic. Man, if predictions really were hopes...every day would be a warm, sunny day!
Just to clarify...
A "gut" feeling is an intitution...
A prediction is to declair a result in advance (you can predict the winner of the Dance gold) but not necessarily base it in logic & analysis, unless you are talking about predetermine (which applies to skating...)
A hope is a belief in a result or trust in the process (skating fans know better though than to trust the process! )
A wish, though, is something your heart makes! (I wish it were hot & sunny all the time)
