this is my comfort poem, my favorite poem. i fell in love with these words the first time i read them. like a thunder clap, these words woke me up.
i bring it out now and then to remind myself of the true nature of love – completely generous and inexhaustible.
this is where we must pull from, this is from what we must find our strength – love.
it is the only way we will outlast those whom we are standing up to.
by the way, this poem is written by the incomparable Shams-ud-din Muhammad Hafiz who was Persian and Muslim.
