God taught me a lesson in life. I wanted one thing he gave me another. I wanted beauty and was endeared by sophistication; he gave me instead simplicity and humility both of which bear such value no man can find. I coveted wealth yet in its place he blessed me with friends, which no amount of riches could replace. He gave me courage when I turned to fear and strength when I gloomed in tears. I sought knowledge yet he blessed me with discernment, enough to figure out who I want to be. In the end it all meant one thing, freedom.
