Just a quote, a few poems by Hafiz and a video today :)
B it's good we talked about stuff last night. Honestly, from my heart, we are on the same page about everything. Really :) Let's just be and let G-d decide the rest. Whatever G-d wants, provides, intends is beautiful. I have no agenda or expectations. I respect your wishes and boundaries and they are also my wishes and boundaries. Love always - however G-d wants that love to look. Friends first, friends last and friends forever. Thank you for being my best friend :)
"when you share your pure thoughts and are willing to say the uncomfortable truths, you feel peaceful and grounded.An important lesson to remember this month is that if you truly care about a person, you should do anything in your power to be open and honest with them. As the kabbalists say: Love without unity isn't love, and unity without love isn't unity." - Yehuda Berg
The heart is
The thousand-stringed instrument.
Our sadness and fear come from being
Out of tune with love.
All day long God coaxes my lips
To speak,
So that your tears will not stain
His green dress.
It is not that the Friend is vain,
It is just your life we care about.
Sometimes the Beloved
Takes my pen in hand,
For Hafiz is just a simple man.
The other day the Old One
Wrote on the tavern wall:
"The heart is
The thousand-stringed instrument
That can only be tuned with
Love."
- Hafiz (Sufi poet circa 1320-1389)
Plant
So that your own heart
Will grow
Love
So God will think,
"Ahhhhh,
I got kin in that body!
I should start inviting that soul over
For coffee and
Rolls."
Sing
Because this is a food
Our starving world
Needs.
Laugh
Because that is the purest
Sound.
- Hafiz
Wherever
God lays His glance
Life starts
Clapping.
The
Myriad
Creatures grab their instruments
And join the
Song.
Whenever love makes itself known
Against another
Body
The
Jewel in the eye starts
To
Dance.
- Hafiz
All
These words
Are just a front
What I would really like to do is
Chain you to my body,
Then sing for days
And days and
Days
About
God.
- Hafiz
Is God speaking.
Why not be polite and
Listen to
Him?
- Hafiz
