Beautiful. This reminds me of a passage I recently read about a depressive man who thought he’d never get out of the hole he was in because he couldn’t possibly imagine how he would climb out of it.
He eventually did manage to climb out of that hole and upon reflection realized that the depressive train of thought that tells you “I won’t get out of this situation because I can’t picture what that would look like” is essentially like telling yourself nothing good will happen because you don’t have the precognitive ability to see the future.
