The truth is this: The march of Providence is so slow and our desires so impatient; the work of progress so immense and our means of aiding it so feeble; the life of humanity is so long, that of the individual so brief, that we often see only the ebb of the advancing wave and are thus discouraged. It is history that teaches us to hope.

It is hard to process being in your real world because you are living a moment of it and can't process the whole. When you can read the whole story, even if it is fictional, I think you can feel complete.
