hope takes time

"Hope also often takes time to mature. On the whole, quick fixes are no match for protracted suffering. Instead, the story of hope is often a long one, with unexpected turns and twists, steps forward and often back too. Time can be both a threat and a friend to hope. Injustice, for example, has to be tediously dismantled, not exploded. This is often infuriating, but it is true.
Hope is more like a treatment plan than an adjustment: in other words, hope takes time to shift toward healing." ~Culture Care
