All kinds of love
By Abu-Said Abil-Kheir
Love came and emptied me of self,
every vein and every pore,
made into a container to be filled by the Beloved.
Of me, only a name is left,
the rest is You my Friend, my Beloved

Matthew 13 the sower
and you will indeed see but never perceive."
15 For this people’s heart has grown dull,
and with their ears ethey can barely hear,
and ftheir eyes they have closed,
lest they should see with their eyes
and hear with their ears
and understand with their heart
and turn, and I would heal them.’

Rilke
My favorite poet reminds me I am younger than an adolescent still not proficient in patience. And yet this causes me to praise emotion and have " pain I am grateful for" kmg preface to Rilke ----/
Being an artist means: not numbering and counting, but ripening like a tree, which doesn’t force its sap, and stands confidently in the storms of spring, not afraid that afterward summer may not come. It does come. But it comes only to those who are patient, who are there as if eternity lay before them, so unconcernedly silent and vast. I learn it every day of my life, learn it with pain I am grateful for: patience is everything!
Rainer Maria Rilke
Christ’s kneostic Love In RUMI poem
Reason seeks a profit.
Love comes on strong,
consuming herself, unabashed.
Yet, in the midst of suffering,
Love proceeds like a millstone,
hard surfaced and straightforward.
Having died of self-interest,
she risks everything and asks for nothing.
Love gambles away every gift God bestows.
Without cause God gave us Being;
without cause, give it back again.
by Mewlana Jalaluddin Rumi
Bvi
Sea carries the fish
Motion and movement twinkle their directions and they have all the directions
Laughter, clanging of the sails are just a hunt of the sounds that fill the marina -
Hidden aside unwalked green mountains and well chartered paths
Vacation or a way of life always unfolding infront of me, I am the same and time lives in me

Let they will be done
So I sing this is ur path
It's full of bounty
It's full of glory
Your will be done
And who may I be
To question or not march onward
As I can not know the role you needed me
Ur servant to play and what it has moved inme to prepare me - soilder in ur army of love...

Small selves
We are imprisoned in our small selves, thinking only of having some comfortable conditions for this small self, while we destroy our large self. If we want to change the situation, we must begin by being our true selves. To be our true selves means we have to be the forest, the river, the ozone layer.
