Hope is two things: wanting a certain outcome and believing it’s possible. Hope can be delusional if its object is impossible, but in no way are all objects of hope universally out of reach. As for hope being brought by despair… well this is plain silly as the definition of despair is literally hopelessness. In that sense I’d argue that hope is actually brought by perceived uncertainty, which sounds pretty boring although it has the merit of being reasonable.
