Beauty Distilled
“How
Did the rose
Ever open its heart
And give to this world
All its
Beauty?
It felt the encouragement of light
Against its Being.
Otherwise,
We all remain
Too Frightened”― Hafez
“I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.
Even After All this time The Sun never says to the Earth, “You owe me.” Look What happens With a love like that, It lights the whole sky.
Fear is the cheapest room in the house. I would like to see you living in better conditions.”― Hafez
In the hurry
Doing
Performing
Over functioning
Busy
Pushing
Scarcity and never enough
In the opening
Being
Inviting
Allowing
Abiding
Reflection
Stillness
Abundance overflowing
Astonishing light
Fear dissipates
Beauty appears where it is rooted and blooms
Front and center
Fertile ground
The whole sky
Fresh eyes, soft heart, arms open.
“When all your desires are distilled
You will cast just two votes:
To love more,
And be happy.”― Hafez
