Dolcezza Della Vita

Rumi
Let go of your worries
and be completely clear-hearted,
like the face of a mirror
that contains no images.
If you want a clear mirror,
behold yourself
and see the shameless truth,
which the mirror reflects.

If metal can be polished
to a mirror-like finish,
what polishing might the mirror
of the heart require?
Between the mirror and the heart
is this single difference:
the heart conceals secrets,
while the mirror does not.

Just be...I keep going back to this Rumi poem...the words are so very true.

Only three days of work this week...due to the Thanksgiving Holiday. Looking forward to some time off...and then Black Friday shopping Friday with a friend. I am not a big shopper, but one year I was out for 9 hours! I was definitely on a mission!

Nothing much to say today...a little tired...horrible vivid dreams...I just wish I could quiet the mind and sleep. I didnt think it was possible to miss someone so much...
