Come, come, whoever you are.
Wonderer, worshipper, lover of leaving.
It doesn't matter.
Ours is not a caravan of despair.
Come, even if you have broken your vows a thousand times.
Come, yet again, come, come.
- Rumi
The body is a sacred garment.
- Martha Graham
Peace is
every step.
The shining
red sun is my heart.
Each flower
smiles at me.
How green,
how fresh all that grows.
How cool the
wind blows.
Peace is
every step.
It turns the
endless path to joy.

Its the fine rain that soaks us through.
- Madame de Sevigne
Those who don't feel this Love
pulling them like a river,
those who don't drink dawn
like a cup of spring water
or take in sunset like supper,
those who don't want to change,
let them sleep.
This Love is beyond the study of theology,
that old trickery and hypocrisy.
If you want to improve your mind that way,
sleep on.
I've given up on my brain.
I've torn the cloth to shreds
and thrown it away.
If you're not completely naked,
wrap your beautiful robe of words
around you,
and sleep.
- Rumi
