I've always loved Rumi.

I love Rumi. One of my favorites is this:

The breeze at dawn has secrets to tell you.
Don't go back to sleep.
You must ask for what you really want.
Don't go back to sleep.
People are going back and forth across the doorsill
where the two worlds touch.
The door is round and open.
Don't go back to sleep.

I like that one. You know, I just realized he's not talking about the literal dawn.

Probably not surprising that this is one of my favorites:

ance, when you're broken open.
Dance, if you've torn the bandage off.
Dance in the middle of the fighting.
Dance in your blood.
Dance, when you're perfectly free.

Ahhhhh... Rumi. *smiles*
