"Your task is not to seek for love, but merely to seek and find all the barriers within yourself that you have built against it."
— Mawlana Jalal-al-Din Rumi

Words
Always do words fall short of meanings ...
Whoever saw the foam of the wave spoke of its secrets,
Yet whoever saw the ocean was dumbfounded.

This being human is a guest house.
every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meaness,
some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture,
every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meaness,
some momentary awareness comes as an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain all!
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whomever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
Cooking, drinking and dying
Yesterday was Sunday, my cooking day, where i cook for the week. but yesterday I didn't manage the cooking, 3 litres of cider and a bottle of wine the night before had wasted me. Only had 3/4 of a bottle of wine last night and am half way tho the cooking today (it's a May day holiday today). That's part of the reason i didnt cook yesterday, i knew I had today instead... but i drink too much and it will kill me!
