Beauty in a world of disillusionment and pain

I have found Love that has stared me in the eye and dared me to face the pain, so as to gain the prize on the other side. He said, "Don't let disappointment break you. It's a storm that has to be traveled through. Don't run away. Don't use rationalization. Don't run to someone or something. Let Me heal you. Be still. Be patient. Wait. Don't lose your Hope. Don't lose the dreams I've given you. Those are promises. My beloved, don't stop living for something beautiful and settle for something mediocre. That is not My Will."
