Sorrow prepares you for joy

Sorrow prepares you for joy.

It violently sweeps everything out of your house,

so that new joy can find space to enter.

It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart,

so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place.

It pulls up the rotten roots,

so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow.

Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart,

far better things will take their place.

❤ Rumi

JOY

We are shaped by our thoughts;

we become what we think.

When the mind is pure,

joy follows like a shadow

that never leaves.

~~ Buddha

When the mind is pure

“We are shaped

by our thoughts;

we become what we think.

When the mind is pure,

joy follows like a shadow

that never leaves.”

~~ Buddha

Sorrow and joy

 

Sorrow prepares you for joy.

It violently sweeps everything out of your house,

so that new joy can find space to enter.

It shakes the yellow leaves from the bough of your heart,

so that fresh, green leaves can grow in their place.

It pulls up the rotten roots,

so that new roots hidden beneath have room to grow.

Whatever sorrow shakes from your heart,

far better things will take their place.

 

              Rumi

Joy and  Sorrow

​I will find new meaning in every joy and sorrow.

In that silence, I will hear the voice of spirit,

And freed from this world,

I will see another

where the end is another beginning.

 

 

~  Rumi.

joy

Don’t be sad.

When joy disappears from your life.

Be sure it will come back in another form.

~ Rumi ~
