I have spent my life dreaming of your face. Now, I have found it.
Rumi
-
Both light and shadow are the dance of Love. Love has no cause, it is the astrolabe of God's secrets. Lover and loving are inseparable and timeless. Although I may try to describe love, when I experience it, I am speechless. Although I may try to write about love, I am rendered helpless. My pen breaks, and the paper slips away at the ineffable place where lover loving and loved are one. Every moment is made glorious by the light of Love.

The universe is not outside of you. Look inside yourself; everything that you want, you already are.

Speak Little. Learn the words of eternity. Go beyond your tangled thoughts and find the splendor of paradise.

Oh soul, you worry too much. You have seen your own strength. You have seen your own beauty. You have seen your golden wings. Of anything less, why do you worry? You are in truth the soul, of the soul, of the soul.

Love is an open secret, the most obvious thing in the world and the most hidden, with no why to how it keeps its mystery.
