Rumi and Flowers

I have been a seeker and I still am,

but I stopped asking the books

and the stars.

I started listening to the teaching

of my soul.

Wherever you stand, be the Soul of that place.

~Rumi

We are just a brush in the hands of the master painter.

~Rumi

The heart is the secret inside the secret.

~Rumi

I love my friends neither with my heart nor with my mind. 

Just in case heart might stop,

Mind can forget.

I love them with my soul.

Soul never stops or forgets!

~Rumi

You were born with potential.

You were born with goodness and trust.

You were born with ideas and dreams.

You were born with greatness. You were born with wings.

You are not meant for crawling, so don't.

You have wings.

Learn to use them and fly.

~Rumi

Blessings and light!
