Natural lines, abstract painting
“Do not feel lonely, the entire universe is inside you.”
“Lovers don’t finally meet somewhere. They’re in each other all along.”
“There are a thousand ways to kneel and kiss the ground; there are a thousand ways to go home again.”
“Raise your words, not voice. It is rain that grows flowers, not thunder.”
“This place is a dream. Only a sleeper considers it real. Then death comes like dawn, and you wake up laughing at what you thought was your grief.”
“Would you become a pilgrim on the road of love? The first condition is that you make yourself humble as dust and ashes.”
“You are not a drop in the ocean. You are the entire ocean, in a drop.”
“If the foot of the trees were not tied to earth, they would be pursuing me. For I have blossomed so much, I am the envy of the gardens.”
“Stop acting so small. You are the universe in ecstatic motion.”
“Don’t be satisfied with stories, how things have gone with others. Unfold your own myth.”
Rumi
