You've seen the world, and all you've seen is nothing; and everything, as well, that you have said and heard is nothing. you've sprinted everywhere between here and the horizon; it is nothing. and all the possessions you've treasured up at home are nothing.

You've Seen The World, And All You've

Omar Khayyam
You've seen the world, and all you've seen is nothing; and everything, as well, that you have said and heard is nothing. you've sprinted everywhere between here and the horizon; it is nothing. and all the possessions you've treasured up at home are nothing.

More From Omar Khayyam

I have seen war. i have seen war on land and sea. i have seen blood running from the wounded. i have seen men coughing out their gassed lungs. i have seen the dead in the mud. i have seen cities destroyed. i have seen 200 limping, exhausted men come out of line—the survivors of a regiment of 1,000 that went forward 48 hours before. i have seen children starving. i have seen the agony of mothers and wives. i hate war.

There is a close relationship between a house full of possessions and a heart full of desires, between a cluttered closet and a crowded schedule, between having no place to put possessions and having no priorities for our life. these are precious clues. they remind us to slow down, to live in the present, to reduce the desires that drain our vitality, to clarify priorities so we can give our time and attention to what matters most. tragically, in the press of modern life, we have managed to get backwards one of life's most vital truths: people are to be loved; things are to be used.

Everything goes, everything comes back; eternally rolls the wheel of being. everything dies, everything blossoms again; eternally runs the year of being. everything breaks, everything is joined anew; eternally the same house of being is built. everything parts, everything greets every other thing again; eternally the ring of being remains faithful to itself. in every now, being begins; round every here rolls the sphere there. the center is everywhere. bent is the path of eternity.

Trying to understand the fear i had of truly opening my heart - first, you have to be whole to do that. the fears, the voices in my mind saying, "oh, you don't want to do that, you might get hurt, they might abandon you - "those are ghost voices from my mom and dad.

I have loved music so much from when i was little and i don't know whether it was because i saw my dad doing it and then i got the idea, i don't know what came first... but i always had a hairbrush in the mirror singing. i was always with him backstage; i would go out and be pulled in for the last song.
