Rumi

If someone asks, _x000D_ But what is Love? _x000D_ Answer, _x000D_ Dissolving the will.

The rule that covers everything is: how you are with others, expect that back.

When The Goodwill Of Hearts Is With You, _x000D_ Fountains Of Wisdom Will Begin To Flow _x000D_ From Within Your Own Being.

And if one of our instruments breaks, it doesn't matter. _x000D_ We have fallen into the place where everything is music.

Be with those who help your being. Don't sit with indifferent people, whose breath comes cold out of their mouths.

Every tree, every growing thing as it grows, _x000D_ says THIS truth, you harvest what you sow.

Just as the heart becomes carefree in a place of green, growing plants, goodwill and kindness are born when our souls enter happiness.

Prayer clears the mist _x000D_ and brings back peace to the Soul . . .

You are the honoured guest, _x000D_ Do not weep like a beggar _x000D_ For pieces of the world.

Heart be brave. If you cannot be brave, just go. Love's glory is not a small thing.

God does not look at your outer forms, _x000D_ but at the love within your love.

You transform all who are touched by you. _x000D_ Mundane concerns, troubles, and sorrows _x000D_ dissolve in your presence, bringing JOY.

Every step I take is a blessing.

Your worst enemy is hiding within yourself, and that enemy is your nafs or false ego.

I have blossomed so much, I am the envy of the gardens.

Live in the opening where _x000D_ there is no door to hide behind.

What you have despised in yourself _x000D_ as a thorn opens into a rose.

When there's no sign of hope in the desert, so much hope still lives inside despair. Heart, don't kill that hope.

I am so small I can hardly be seen. How can this great love be inside me? Look at your eyes. They are small, but they see enormous things.

Last night I learned how to be a lover of God. To live in this world and call nothing my own.

Don't look for Love, look for the one looking for Love.
