Nothing kills the soul that commands to evil (Nafs al Ammarra) like seeing the beauty of the heart.
Shams TabriziThe past is a fog on our minds. The future? A complete dream. We can't neither guess the future, neither change the past.
Shams TabriziBe sure that someday you'll praise and thank God for your unanswered prayers that once you had wept for them.
Shams TabriziThe universe is a complete unique entity. Everything and everyone is bound together with some invisible strings. Do not break anyoneโs heart; do not look down on weaker than you. Oneโs sorrow at the other side of the world can make the entire world suffer; oneโs happiness can make the entire world smile.
Shams TabriziThe chemistry of mind is different from the chemistry of love. The mind is careful, suspicious, he advances little by little. He advises โBe careful, protect yourselfโ Whereas love says โLet yourself, go!โ The mind is strong, never falls down, while love hurts itself, falls into ruins. But isnโt it in ruins that we mostly find the treasures? A broken heart hides so many treasures.
Shams TabriziIf you want to change the way others treat you, you should first change the way you treat yourself. Unless you learn to love yourself, fully and sincerely, there is no way you can be loved. Once you achieve that stage, however, be thankful for every thorn that others might throw at you. It is a sign that you will soon be showered in roses.
