Rumi says


Several years ago I visited Rumi's tomb in Turkey, a kind of pilgrimage.

Today, like every other day,
we wake up empty and frightened.
Don't open the door to the study
and begin reading.
Take down a musical instrument.

Let the beauty we love be what we do.
There are hundreds of ways to kneel and
kiss the ground.

-Rumi
