About This Quote
This quote is a great reminder that when we have a negative experience in our lives, it can hold us back from going after what we truly desire. A bad relationship can make us feel like we can’t be happy without him or her and we must get over it. We may be looking for the wrong things and confusing love for something else. If we can look at our life with God and see the beauty in everything, we will see the beauty in every relationship and everything that comes our way. For each thing that is ugly, disgusting, and downright wicked, there is a wonderful blessing that will come about.
