These pains you feel are messengers. Listen to them.

Hi Starrlight,

Are you studying Rumi?

I had never heard of him, but I searched your quote, and I was surprised to find him quoted all over the internet.

My generation had Baba Ram Dass. His Be Here Now book was groundbreaking when it was released, but old stuff now of course.

I hope things are improving for you.

[Starrlight in reply to Nothing_but_books]

No but I do come across many writings that I live by Rumi. Oh nice never heard of Baba. But Be Here Now sounds like it could be timeless.

Things are improving, thanks.

How are you doing?

[Nothing_but_books in reply to Starrlight]

Made it through the day alive. Icon-a-phobia, so: happy face.

Think the book is still around. You might enjoy it. Very peaceful.

Came here to drop off a song - see if you like it.

Where’s the song?

I love rumi, he has some great quotes. Sufism is an interesting religion. I enjoy reading about it. I am not committed to any religion myself.

I also like reading Hafiz. He’s similar- check it out!

[Starrlight in reply to Theloudone]

I will thanks... I’m not into any certain religion either, I take good from each I encounter.

I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being
