Take Me To The Unicorns And Rainbows...

That quote you see and hear everywhere:

"We have to see the storms and rain before we see the rainbow." 

But why?

Isn't that just torturing us?

Why do we have to go through these "trials" before we live happily ever after?

Why doesn't God just bring us all home to Him and then we can pet adorable unicorns.

Unicorns with those sparkly diamond horns and the beautiful rainbow-dyed manes and tails.

Some may even have coats of all kinds of different colors besides white.

We can also ride the normal horses.

You know, the ones with the pretty white wings, that you really don't ride, you just hop on the back of one and they fly and do all the traveling for you, and you just sit back and relax while clinging onto their beautiful mane.

We can also dance on clouds and have family time with everyone, and celebrate the fact that we don't have to worry anymore.

Then, we can slide on the rainbows, as if we were always youngsters our whole lives, and enjoy the breeze directly from the sky as we enjoy the soft rainbow lines moving beneath us.

So tell me, why do we have to keep doing this?

I know God means well, and he is an amazing God, and he loves us more than anyone.

But just explain to me.

Why can't we be with the unicorns and rainbows right now?

They're beautiful. 

God is beautiful.

Heaven is beautiful.

And Earth?

Where we are now?

Well, at the moment, it's all about war.

And it's bad.

But up in the sky?

The best place to be.
