'Girl in Pain' by Veri Apriyatno Medium: Charcoal & Soft Pastels on Pastelist paper Beautiful in Its Time I asked God for a beautiful flower, He gave me a thorny cactus. I asked God for a cute little animal, He gave me a caterpillar. I was sad and disappointed... How unfair it all was... But then the cactus bloomed beautifully. And the caterpillar grew and turned into a beautiful butterfly. That's God's way. Beautiful in Its Time... God doesn't give me what I want. But God gives me what I need.
