I read something this morning, my loves ~ from poet, Jalāl ad-Dīn Rūmī.
“You are the honored guest. Do not weep like a beggar for pieces of this world.”
I sat for a moment to absorb the essence of his words; to understand the simplicity of this message.
That life is not for the feint of heart, my loves. And, we must find courage enough to truly live.
‘Carpe Diem’, they like to say; seize the day. Though, how often do you catch yourself holding back? Questioning the reasonability or practicality of moving forward? Or, worse yet – second guessing that innate inner wisdom?
Do not stand there and weep, my friends. Though, if you must – shed those tears for the moments missed.
And, then?
Cast aside those ‘wish I hads’ and in that space simply
Live…live…live…
In peace…
Namaste ❤️
