Thanks to all that have been with me through this thing called life. You matter
In my mind it depends on why you're hoping and what you're hoping for. Hoping that an incredibly painful and difficult to tolerate physical condition resolves as soon as possible seems like an incredibly appropriate and worthwhile use of hope in my mind. It is wonderful you can see the negativity for what it is and you value what matters. Many of us here are pulling for you and are happy to offer our hope as well.
