Ruminating with Rumi
Celebrate what cannot be said with words that point the way. Receive the words in silence. Do not linger at the signpost. Signposts are there only to point the way. Let the words have their say, then follow the path set forth by twia. Twia draws you into the eternal. You are the glow within. Words blow across the ember to ignite the flame. Open your heart to receive the breeze. Bring it carefully to awareness. Do this secretly. Pour yourself into the fiery silence that lies deep within. The light may blind you briefly, so hold on to twia. Twia knows the way without words.
Awaken to twia. Be where you are in the moment, renewed and refreshed. Springtime comes in silence. Winter’s blanket may cover you for a time, but you will return. Look within for joy. Find yourself. You are gone briefly, then you remember twia. Now you know the way. Even if you fall into the brambles, you know the way out. Wisdom comes to you. You may find yourself in darkness, but there is always a glow ahead. You are in secret conversation with your own true nature. It is not you who walks in darkness. You are the light. You are the emptiness that you fear. Do not cling to ignorance. Find wisdom in the still silence by emptying yourself of desire. To be empty is to receive your abundance. Your abundance is joy and wisdom. From that springs love without fear. Without fear, you are awake in a new world, renewed and refreshed.
