Here’s a little Sufi wisdom from the mystical poet, Hafiz, that opened to me first thing this morning. See what you think…
FAITHFUL LOVER
The moon came to me last night with a sweet question. She said, “The sun has been my faithful lover for millions of years. Whenever I offer my body to him brilliant light pours from his heart. Thousands then notice my happiness and delight in pointing toward my beauty. Hafiz, is it true that our destiny is to turn into Light Itself?” And I replied, Dear Moon, now that your love is maturing, we need to sit together close like this more often so I might instruct you how to become Who you Are! (THE GIFT, 159)

The reference is a book called The Gift which is a translation by Daniel Ladinsky of poems by Hafiz, the great Sufi master. The poem, on page 159, is called Faithful Lover. Glad you liked it.
