WHAT YOU ARE SEEKING IS PURE LOVE
What you seek With all your heart Is seeking you. Your task is not To seek for Love, But to seek And find all the barriers Within yourself that You have built Against it. Lovers don’t finally Meet somewhere— They are in Each other All along. —Rumi

PATIENCE SEES THE COMING GOOD
Being patient does not mean
sitting somewhere and waiting—
Patience is the ability to see the
real potential of what will be
with silence and confidence…
It is looking at a bush of thorns
and seeing the brilliant blossom of the rose,
Looking in the depths of the darkest night
And seeing the coming of a new day.
Patience is being a lover in Love
With life and the beloved
Who knows that it takes time
For the moon to become full
And shine its radiant light
Upon every part of this
Painful and ordinary world.
—Rumi New Translation by Chinmayan
Meanwhile, may this be one of the most wonderful and amazing days of your life!
