“What seems to us as bitter trials are often blessings in disguise.” Oscar Wilde
Towards Love Hope waited long, until one day, hope cried out in the wilderness of life, a singular sound, a solitary word, exposing all that was stolen, silencing the clamour of desolation, until hope cried even louder, calling to the very heart, opening the gate through which we ran, ran towards the voice crying love.
