Rumi

Rumi

Rumi
Half-heartedne ss doesn't reach into majesty.
Rumi

Rumi
This is not a day for asking questions, not a day on any calendar. This day is conscious of itself. This day is a lover, bread, and gentleness, more manifest than saying can say.
Rumi
In this life many demolitions are actually renovations.
Rumi
Wherever water flows, life flourishes: wherever tears fall, Divine mercy is shown.
Rumi
We love that s why life is full of so many wonderful gifts.
Rumi
Every moment, a voice, out of this world, calls on our soul, to wake up and rise.
Rumi
Don’t wait any longer. Dive in the ocean, Leave and let the sea be you.
Rumi
You wander from room to room Hunting for the diamond necklace That is already around your neck!
Rumi
My heart rushes into the garden, joyfully tasting all the delights. But reason frowns, disapproving of the heart's bad manners.
Rumi
