Hope is like one of those Japanse Blossoms

When hope is not pinned wriggling onto a shiny image or expectation, it sometimes floats forth and opens like one of those fluted Japanese blossoms, flimsy and spastic, bright and warm. This almost always seems to happen in community.
–Annie Lamott quoted in "The Impossible Will Take a Little While"
