Selections from Rumi's Little Book of Wisdom: People always fall in love with what they can't have. They readily give up their freedom in order to own what they can't understand; and they never fully appreciate what they've rightfully owned from the beginning. There is never a moment when we're not in love. Every hour there might be a new love: the love of sleep, love of rest, love of the harp, or simply love of beauty. When we feel enveloped by these feelings, we know we're enveloped by Love. What a shame to finally reach the open sea but settle for a modest jug of water!
