Faith

And the boy cried: 'Why won't you love me?' and she looked back at him and with great compassion she answered him: 'Why won't you love yourself? Why is it so hard for you to live in reality and blind your nightmares with the light of joy?'
Then the boy fell on his knees with tears running down his face. Once more she laid eyes on him and said: 'Yes, down you fall when you look at your mistakes, but know that only when you hit the ground you will be able to push yourself to greater hights than you've imagined. All it takes is faith, and truth must be your path. Now go and find your light.'
After these words she left him and the days went by like autumn leaves. In her heart she carried the hope that one day he'd find that light and that it would shine upon her too, for nothing is more sacred than the light of love that shines from a heart that's at peace.
