Spring is here


Sell your cleverness and buy bewilderment.
Yesterday I was clever, so I wanted to change the world.
Today I am wise, so I am changing myself.
Be like the sun for grace and mercy.
Be like the night to cover others' faults.
Be like running water for generosity.
Be like death for rage and anger.
Be like the Earth for modesty.
Be as you appear.
Within tears, find hidden laughter,
seek treasures amid ruins,
sincere one.
 
~ Jalaluddin Rumi ~
