You run back and forth listening for unusual events, peering into the faces of travelers. Why are you looking at me like a madman? I have lost a friend. Please forgive me.

Wisdom tells us we are not worthy Love tells us we are. My life flows between the two.
Rumi

Death has nothing to do with going away.The sun sets The moon sets But they are not gone.
Rumi
Image
You left ground and sky weeping, mind and soul full of grief. No one can take your place in existence, or in absence. Both mourn, the angels, the prophets, and this sadness I feel has taken from me the taste of language, so that I cannot say the flavor of my being apart.
Rumi
Image
This is the essence of all sciences - that you should know who you will be when the Day of Reckoning arrives.

Don't try to steer the boat. Don't open shop for yourself. Listen. Keep silent. You are not God's mouthpiece. Try to be an ear, And if you do speak, ask for explanations.
Rumi
Image
I was once like you, enlightened and rational, I too scoffed at lovers, Now I am drunk, crazed, thin with misery. No one is safe! Watch out.
Rumi

Even though you tie a hundred knots, the string remains one.
Rumi

Finding faults is for those with tired minds.
Rumi
Image
People are distracted by objects of desire, and afterward repent of the lust they've indulged, because they have indulged with a phantom and are left even farther from Reality than before.
Rumi
Image
God writes spiritual Mysteries on our heart, where they wait silently for discovery.
Rumi
Image
You could string a hundred endless days together, My soul would find no comfort from this pain. You laugh at my tale? You may be educated But you haven’t learned to love till you’re insane
Rumi
Image
Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you. Then you will see your own light as radiant as the full moon.
Rumi
Image
How far is the light of the moon from the moon? How far is the taste of candy from the lip?
Rumi
Image
Love possesses seven hundred wings, and each one extends from the highest heaven to the lowest earth.
Rumi
