The Archangel and My Suffering
Once an Archangel, witnessing my suffering,
Descended close to me himself* to find
And
With great compassion inquired what was the
Cause of my pain
“ I can’t understand why so much, I have to suffer.”
Hesitantly, I replied
“Well,” he said compassionately,
“This is the only way for you, wisdom to gain!”
