Beloved!
If you are seeking closeness to the Beloved,
love everyone.
Whether in their presence or absence,
see only their good.
If you want to be as clear and refreshing as
the breath of the morning breeze,
like the sun, have nothing but warmth and light
for everyone.

i cannot agree with you more
I can’t agree with you …
because human heart is not like rug…
A simple word can make the heart smile like the sunshine or bleed to death…
Been a beloved doesn’t give you the right to hurt who loves you..
"Honest criticism is hard to take, particularly from a relative, a friend, an acquaintance, or a stranger."
If it is “Honest” it will never hurt,
But when it reflects a personal judgement, it turns to a dagger in the heart.
“Being right too soon is socially unacceptable.”
How many times we hurt each other under the pretext that we are honest and right?
Honesty or rightness has nothing to do with that ….
It’s all about … are we capable to be sensitive to others feelings?
“Right is right, even if everyone is against it; and wrong is wrong, even if everyone is for it”

I've played all my cards
And that's what you've done too
Nothing more to say
No more ace to play

''Either give me enough wine or leave me alone,
now that I know how it is
to be with you in constant conversation."

"My eye-liner is the dust of your door and fence
Where shall I go, tell me, you command me whence?
Where to O heart, in such hurry you go whence?"
''Tear down the Mosque, tear down the temple
Tear down every thing in sight
But don't (tear down) break anyone's heart
Because God lives there.''
“The heart is the only broken instrument that works.”
“Broken heart ...turns to a graveyard ... cold and gloomy ... It works but as a routine without spark”
“Follow your heart, but be quiet for a while first. Ask questions, then feel the answer. Learn to trust your heart.”

Painful, disturbed, broken my sleep.
If you don’t believe, send me your thoughts
And you will see how in sleep I weep"

Of the broken heart’s living hell?
My sorrow is in how I can find
Another who knows these sorrows well.''

When I got drunk, told me to stop.
My eyes watery, my heart on fire,
I became dust and your wind picked me up".
''Don't boast of reading, mastering science
Or of all your prayers and obeisance.
If you don't identify Man as God,
All your learning is of no use at all.
The true meaning of the four holy books
Is found in the alphabet's first letter.
You talk about that first letter, preacher;
What is the meaning of that-could you tell?
Yunus Emre says to you, Pharisee,
Make the holy pilgrimage if need be
A hundred times -- but if you ask me,
A visit to the heart is best of all.''
I heard a bird sing
In the night of December
A magical thing
And sweet to remember.
"We are nearer to Spring
Than we were in September,"
I heard a bird sing
In the dark of December.
Happiness is in the heart not in the weather or seasons outside...ever imagined how a blind or deaf person find happiness when they cannot see or hear any birds or their songs?
"Most people are about as happy as they make up their minds to be."
"O Player, play something pleasing to the ear,
With a song and a Gahzal begin a story, dear
My sorrows have tied me to the ground,
Raise me with my principles that are sound,
O Singer, with the sound of the stream
Play and sing that majestic song I dream,
Make the great souls happy with you"
''I said,
'O sweet beloved,
you are the refuge of my soul.'
He said, 'If you belong to me,
don't talk of your own soul.'
I said, 'Why do you cut me
with your sharp words?'
He said, 'My words wouldn't hurt you
if you weren't in love with yourself.''
I no longer
know the difference
between image and reality
Like the shadow
I am
And
I am not
