"I think we dream so we don’t have to be apart for so long. If we’re in each other’s dreams, we can be together all the time.” -Winnie the Pooh


You can see the destruction
The smoke and dust rising from the ruins
But beauty will come from the ashes

You can watch the fires rage
Consuming everything in its path
But beauty will come from the ashes

The ground will rise and fall
In a wave of devastation
But beauty will come from the ashes

You can feel the earth tremble
And mountains shake to their foundations
But beauty will come from the ashes

He will bring beauty from the ashes.
