Hey! Lighten Up! It's Funny!!


Tripping over Joy ~

What is the difference
Between your experience of Existence
And that of a saint?

The saint knows
That the spiritual path
Is a sublime chess game with God

And that the Beloved
Has just made such a Fantastic Move

that the saint is now continually
Tripping over Joy
And bursting out in Laughter
And saying, "I Surrender!"

Whereas, my dear,
I'm afraid you still think

You have a thousand serious moves.

~Hafiz

Sign me, Mostly Bemused.

“We have come into this exquisite world to experience ever and ever more deeply our divine courage, freedom and light!”
