Dance – July 1, 2021
Dance, when you’re broken open.Dance, if you’ve torn the bandage off.Dance in the middle of the fighting.Dance in your blood.Dance when you’re perfectly free. -Jelaluddin Rumi, trans. by Coleman Barks, The Essential Rumi, p. 281
Something – June 30, 2021
Something opens our wings. Somethingmakes boredom and hurt disappear.Someone fills the cup in front of us.We taste only sacredness. -Jelaluddin Rumi, trans. by Coleman Barks, The Essential Rumi, p. 280
Keep Walking – June 29, 2021
Keep walking, though there’s no place to get to.Don’t try to see through the distances.That’s not for human beings. Move within,but don’t move the way fear makes you move. -Jelaluddin Rumi, trans. by Coleman Barks, The Essential Rumi, p. 278
So Small – June 28, 2021
I am so small I can barely be seen.How can this great love be inside me? Look at your eyes. They are small,but they see enormous things. -Jelaluddin Rumi, trans. by Coleman Barks, The Essential Rumi, p. 279
