I read the source; beautiful wounds, beautiful words, but then the gentleman is said to be eloquent. Beauty can make me cry but that is not a wound - it might make me aware of wounds I have; Beauty makes me aspire and be strong and believe, but the connection between pain and beauty is one I do not feel. I have not seen anyone made more noble or 'better' by pain. I do not see it as a sanctifier or something which makes inherent worth shine. I have only ever seen it crush the light in the eyes of gentle folk. Pain is my enemy except when it brings me warning, and if beauty caused me pain, I don't know what I would do.
I will read the message again and try to understand it better; as a light shone on the face of a man I am inclined to distrust, the message is in itself, beautiful.
