If you are a man of learning, read something classic, a history of the human struggle and don't settle for mediocre verse.

Be soulful. Be kind. Be in love.

Join the community of saints and know the delight of your own Soul. Enter the ruins of your Heart and Learn the Meaning of Humility.

It may be that the satisfaction I need depends on my going away, so that when I've gone and come back, I'll find it at home.

To find the Beloved, you must become the Beloved.

Love Is the Treasure The temple of love is not love itself; True love is the treasure, Not the walls about it. Do not admire the decoration, But involve yourself in the essence, The perfume that invades and touches you- The beginning and the end. Discovered, this replaces all else, The apparent and the unknowable. Time and space are slaves to this presence.

A lover in life will be a lover in death, a lover in the tomb, a lover in paradise, a lover on the day of resurrection.
