More From Rumi

In a world filled with hate, we must still dare to hope. in a world filled with anger, we must still dare to comfort. in a world filled with despair, we must still dare to dream. and in a world filled with distrust, we must still dare to believe.

From space, astronauts can see people making love as a tiny speck of light. not light, exactly, but a glow that could be confused for light - a coital radiance that takes generations to pour like honey through the darkness to the astronaut's eyes. in about one and a half centuries - after the lovers who made the glow will have long since been laid permanently on their backs - the metropolitan cities will be seen from space. they will glow all year. smaller cities will also be seen, but with great difficulty. towns will be virtually impossible to spot. individual couples invisible.

It is not expensive to be beautiful. it takes only a little effort to be presentable and beautiful. but it takes some effort. and unfortunately people think of beauty as luxury, beauty as frivolity, ... or extravagance. beauty is a discipline, beauty is art, is harmony, in the ideological sense and in the theological sense, beauty is god and love made real. and the ultimate reach in this world is beauty.

What sex is, we don't know, but it must be some sort of fire. for it always communicates a sense of warmth, of glow. and when this glow becomes a pure shine, then we feel the sense of beauty. we all have the fire of sex slumbering or burning inside us. if we live to be ninety, it is still there. or, if it dies, we become one of those ghastly living corpses which are unfortunately becoming more numerous in the world.
Sex Fire Shining
As in the presence of the master, the servants are equall, and without any honour at all; so are the subjects, in the presence of the soveraign. and though they shine some more, some lesse, when they are out of his sight; yet in his presence, they shine no more than the starres in presence of the sun.

This nation loves singing and loves acting.

I was on the verge of tears, so i turned and ran past the trailer and along the field road until i was safely out of their sight. then i ducked into the cotton and waited for friendly voices. i sat on the hot ground, surrounded by stalks four feet tall, and i cried, something i really hated to do.
