Love in a ‘World of Wounds’

A young couple decided to marry in a village where storms came often and crops failed more than they grew. Neighbours questioned their choice, pointing at the harsh world around them. But they smiled, planted a tree together, and built a modest home. Years later, with the laughter of children echoing through their courtyard, they still faced hardships — sickness, loss, struggles. Yet each morning, they held hands and faced the day together. Love, even in a world filled with pain and trauma, can offer healing, solace, and a sense of hope.

Frankly speaking, true love is despite suffering. It’s the quiet courage to hope, to build, and to believe in tomorrow even when today is full of pain.
