deserts and wells

by Rachel Llabore (II-Acacia)

“What makes the desert beautiful,” said the little prince, “is that somewhere it hides a well.” (The Little Prince, Antoine de Saint-Exupery) This means that no matter how dry and barren the desert is, there would always be a source of life – a well to quench a traveler’s thirst – hidden somewhere.

Likewise, we can associate the desert to our own lives. Even if the paths of life are bumpy and we get to meet trials and challenges along the way, still life is beautiful and full of surprises. It’s the same as saying “Every cloud has a silver lining.”

God has a purpose for everything and He sets an equal reward for you after going through and surviving a problem.

yes. and we have to see challenges and problems as something beautiful because from these we grow, we change, we become who we are. what's good with deserts is that we know there is always water somewhere. however, it isn't only the oasis that gives beauty to what we go through, it is the challenge itself that makes the desert beautiful.
