Don't dismiss the heart, even if it's filled with sorrow. God's treasures are buried in broken hearts.
RumiYou must ask for what you really want. / Don't go back to sleep. / The door is round and open. / Don't go back to sleep.
RumiIt is as if a king had sent you to a country to carry out one special, specific task. You go to the country and you perform a hundred other tasks, but if you have not performed the task you were sent for, it is as if you have done nothing at all. So people have come into the world for particular tasks, and that is our purpose. If we don't perform it, we will have done nothing.
Rumi
