Darkness cannot conceal the Light
Love explained each thing to me,
Love solved everything for me,
That is why I admire love wherever it is found.
If love is as great as it is simple;
If the simplest longing can be found in nostalgia,
then I can understand why God wants to be greeted by simple people,
by those whose hearts are pure and find no words to express their love.
God came this far and He stopped a short step away from nothingness,
Very close to our eyes.
Perhaps life is a wave of astonishment... a wave higher than death.
Don't be afraid. Never.
-from the movie Karol: A Man Who Became Pope
