Rumi

Be empty of worrying.
Think of who created thought!
Why do you stay in prison
When the door is so wide open?

''When I was 5 years old, my mother always told me that happiness was the key to life. When I went to school, they asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up. I wrote down ‘happy’. They told me I didn’t understand the assignment, and I told them they didn’t understand life.''

“We were promised sufferings. They were part of the program. We were even told, ''Blessed are they that mourn.''”

"I have lived on the lip
of insanity, wanting to know reasons,
knocking on a door. It opens.
I've been knocking from the inside."

تو را چه سود
فخر به فلک بَر
فروختن
هنگامی که
هر غبارِ راهِ لعنت‌شده نفرینَت می‌کند؟

''A psychology professor at the University of Miami knew his students expected a terrifyingly long final exam.

To play with their minds a little (what do you expect from a psychology professor?) he only put ONE question on the final exam.

He watched the reactions of the students as they all opened the exams and saw the one question.

Initially they all looked relieved, but as the difficulty of the question began to sink in, those relieved faces sagged to confusion and consternation.

All, that is, except for one student.

He read the question, tapped his pencil into his palm a few times, then jotted something down on the test paper.

He walked up to the professor, handed him the final, and walked out.

The professor blinked in surprise, looked at what the student wrote, and smiled.

The professor wrote "100%" on the top of that student's test.


The question: What is courage?

The student's answer: This is.''

دستم به هر ستاره که می خواست می رسید
نه از فراز بام که از پای بوته ها
می شد ترا در اینه هرستاره دید
در بی کران دشت
در نیمه های شب
جز من که با خیال تو می گشتم
جز من که در کنار تو می سوختم غریب
تنها ستاره بود که می سوخت
تنها نسیم بود که می گشت

به انتظار تصویر تو
این دفتر خالی
تاچند
تا چند
ورق خواهد زد؟
***
جریان باد را پذیرفتن
و عشق را
که خواهر مرگ است.-

و جاودانگی
رازش را
با تو درمیان نهاد.

پس به هیئت گنجی در آمدی:
بایسته وآزانگیز
گنجی از آن دست
که تملک خاک را و دیاران را
از این سان
دلپذیر کرده است!
***
نامت سپیده دمی است که بر پیشانی آفتاب می گذرد
- متبرک باد نام تو -

و ما همچنان
دوره می کنیم
شب را و روز را
هنوز را...

"People often say that this or that person has not yet found himself. But the self is not something one finds, it is something one creates."
