Stay Happy, Healthy and Safe -85

Where the mind is without fear
and the head is held high,
where knowledge is free.
Where the world has not been broken up into fragments by narrow domestic walls.
Where words come out from the depth of truth,
where tireless striving stretches its arms toward perfection.
Where the clear stream of reason has not lost it’s way
into the dreary desert sand of dead habit.
Where the mind is led forward by thee
into ever widening thought and action.
In to that heaven of freedom, my father,
LET MY COUNTRY AWAKE!

 

Rabindranath Tagore

Rabindranath Tagore, Gitanjali

 

 

To know love is to know pain

Heartsick, heartbroken —

To know love is to know pain.

What could be more common?

Even so, each broken heart is so singular

That with it we probe the Divine.”

❤ ❤ Rumi

Broken Heart

‘The wailing

of broken hearts

is the doorway to God.’

Rumi ❤

The world breaks everyone……

The world breaks everyone,

and afterward,

some are strong at the broken places.

 

~~ Ernest Hemingway

Heart filled with sorrow

Don’t dismiss the heart,

even if it’s filled with sorrow.

God’s treasures are buried in broken hearts.”

 

❤ Rumi
