Meaning
This reads as a turn from hurt toward renewal, with the emphasis on time doing its quiet work. It can be taken to mean that healing is not instant, but once it arrives it can change the feel of life, making people lighter and more open. It lands after grief, conflict, or burnout, when relief feels almost visible in the room.
