✦ MADE SIMPLE

I made entire nations tremble when they heard him crash down. When I threw him into the depths with everyone else heading to the grave, all the magnificent trees of Eden — the best and most beautiful from Lebanon, all the ones that had plenty of water — found comfort together in the depths of the earth.

⚡ THE BOTTOM LINE

Even the mightiest fall hard, but there's strange comfort in knowing you're not alone in the depths.
