Stay happy, healthy and safe – 42

To me, Nature is a place where you retreat

whenever you feel exhausted or sad.

I’m more happy when I’m surrounded by

the sound of birds than the sound of people.

– Keanu Reeves

I swear !

I swear, since seeing Your face,

the whole world is fraud and fantasy

The garden is bewildered as to what is leaf or blossom.

The distracted birds

can’t distinguish the birdseed from the snare.

A house of love with no limits,

a presence more beautiful than venus or the moon,

a beauty whose image fills the mirror of the heart.

Rumi, The Divani Shamsi Tabriz XV
