An Interesting Discovery

Dec 06, 2005 17:32

Was reading 'The Essential Rumi'. Overthrown and overpowered by a verse in one of his poems:

Those that make you return, for whatever reason,
to God's solitude, be grateful to them.
Worry about the others, who give you
delicious comforts that keep you from the prayer.
Friends are enemies sometimes,
and enemies friends.

(extracted from Jelaluddin Rumi's 'Checkmate')

Just in the mood for some reality check...this is real lor!

Oh, I didn't get any work done. :(
