Meaning
This reads as a small philosophy of motion, where staying in movement helps preserve hope. It can be taken to mean that uncertainty is easier to bear when life still feels open, with something ahead that has not yet been fixed. It lands for someone going through change, when forward motion itself becomes a way to keep going.
