Don't get so hung up on dates. Remember that the calendar is our invention, not theirs. One day on earth = 2 weeks in the next dimension. So if you went away with them, for example, and stayed with them for what seemed like one month, only two days would have passed here on Earth. We'll know more dimensional science in the future. It will be a new field.

So the word 'soon' to them means something entirely different than to us. They also have much longer life spans. So their 'soon' seems like a long time to us.

Patience.
