Châtaigner (Sweet Chestnut)

Unendurable desolation; a light shining in the darkness.

For a time of terrible anguish and despair when we are at the uttermost limits of endurance, there appears to be no light or love left in our world, nothing but destruction and annihilation, utter desolution, unable even to pray, the 'dark night of the soul'. Sweet Chestnut leads to new insights and new possibilities.
