Quote

Do not keep crying when your love has been gone. You only need Smile because he had been given you the opportunity to meet someone who is better.

Image
Sow a seed and the earth will yield you a flower. Dream your dream to the sky and it will bring you your beloved.
Khalil Gibran
Image
And if you would know God, be not therefore a solver of riddles. Rather look about you and you shall see Him playing with your children.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Those to whom worshiping is a window, to open but also to shut, have not yet visited the house of their souls whose windows are open from dawn to dawn.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Life is but a sleep disturbed by dreaming, prompted by the will the saddened soul with sadness hides it's secrets, and the gay, with thrill.
Khalil Gibran
Image
He is short-sighted who looks only on the path he treads and the wall on which he leans.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Would that I were a dry well, and that the people tossed stones into me, for that would be easier than to be a spring of flowing water that the thirsty pass by, and from which they avoid drinking.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Your house is your larger body. It grows in the sun and sleeps in the stillness of the night and it is not dreamless. Does not your house dream, and dreaming, leave the city for grove or hilltop?
Khalil Gibran
Image
Should you really open your eyes and see, you would behold your image in all images. And should you open your ears and listen, you would hear your own voice in all voices.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The feelings we live through in love and in loneliness are simply, for us, what high tide and low tide are to the sea.
Khalil Gibran
Image
For the vision of one man lends not its wings to another man.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Love that does not renew itself every day becomes a habit and in turn a slavery.
Khalil Gibran
Image
I would tell you more of Him, but how shall I? When love becomes vast love becomes wordless. And when memory is overladen it seeks the silent deep.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Cover me with soft earth, and let each handful be mixed With seeds ofjasmine, lilies, and myrtle and when they Grow above me and thrive on my body's element they will Breathe the fragrance of my heart into space.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Mother: the most beautiful word on the lips of mankind.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Who are you that men should rend their bosom and unveil their pride, that you may see their worth naked and their pride unabashed? See first that you yourself deserve to be a giver, and an instrument of giving.
Khalil Gibran
Image
The truly good is he who is one with all those who are deemed bad.
Khalil Gibran
Image
All our words are but crumbs that fall down from the feast of the mind.
Khalil Gibran
Image
We fear death, yet we long for slumber and beautiful dreams.
Khalil Gibran
Image
A woman whom Providence has provided with beauty of spirit and body is a truth, at the same time both open and secret, which we can understand only by love, and touch only by virtue.
Khalil Gibran
Image
Say not, 'I have found the truth,' but rather, 'I have found a truth.' Say not, ' I have found the path of the soul.' Say rather, 'I have met the soul walking upon my path.' For the soul walks upon all paths. The soul walks not upon a line, neither does it grow like a reed. The soul unfolds itself, like a lotus of countless petals.
