Have you found your soul mate yet?
Words found in old St. Paul's Church Baltimore dated 1692
Go placidly amid the noise and haste, remember what peace there maybe in silence.
Speak your truth quietly and clearly and listen to others, even the dull and ignorant, they too have their story.
If you compare yourself with others, you may become vain and bitter, for always there will be greater and lesser person than yourself.
Exercise caution for the world is full of trickery. But let this not blind you to virtue there is, many people strive for high ideals and everywhere life is full of heroism.
Be yourself. Do not feign affection, neither be cynical about love, for in the face of all aridity and disenchantment it is perennial as the grass.
Take kindly the counsel of years, gracefully surrendering the things of youth. Nurture strength fo spirit to shield you in sudden misrortune. Be gentle with yourself.
You are child of the universe, no less than the trees and the stars, you have right to be here.
Therefore be at peace with God, whatever you conceive Him to be, and whatever your labours and aspiration.
In the noisy confusion of life keep peace with your soul.
With all its sham, drudgery and broken dreams, it is still beautiful world. Be careful. Strive to be happy.
You and me, hand in hand, standing in front of this ancient church, silent.
Rumi words comes to my mind, when we fimally move on, leaving our footsteps in the soft sand below.
There is a thread from the heart to the lips, where the secret of life is woven. Words tear the thread but in silence the secrets speak.
You take my hand and we climb up the rocky slope and we both know it will be long and hard journey...
and we know, once the soul awakens, the search begins and you can never go back. From then on, you are inflamed with a special longing...
To always feel the presence of your soulmate next to you...
That special someone who finally makes you appreciate the body that houses your soul, the soul that makes you.
That special someone who tells you, I love your body and soul. Something about those words brings you peace and love and appreciation for all that you are.
There is a thread
that binds us together
into an invisible knot
woven from the words
and silence...
Every individual is free to choose
what their heart wants to experience
and want to feel...
You and me
know that our age
is not really different
from all other ages
because what works
what brings happiness
is eternal.
My Fellow reader,
let us open a book of poetry
by the Sufi master
written 800 years ago
to see
the real cause of suffering,
the way to stop suffering'
always remain the same.
My fellow adventurer,
my own personal mission
is to nurture and empower you
this is what turns me on
keeps me up often writing late into the night,
let us put our thoughts together
and go for a good life...
My fellow human being,
in your world
love is tender
kind
compassionate
and respectful
it is not about you
it is about us
and the magic of the moment
when two people
share from a good place in their heart.
My fellow member of the rat race,
we both have commitments in our lives
that we have to honour
and still we are breaking away
from old patterns of conditioning
that have told us
we are born to survive
at all costs,
that in order to be happy
we have to be something,
achieve something,
prove something.
There is not enough time in the day
to complete the tasks we need to do
there is no room for a breather,
no space just to relax
and feel our heart,
the spirit deep inside us.
My fellow traveller,
let us walk together
and cut through
all those conditionings
that tell us to be
who we are not.
My friend,
we are able to see
through those ideas
as false,
and what remains is love
itself.
My fellow companion,
we get so in touch
in our inner feelings
when we talk
it is unreal
we know
no one person can give the other person
everything
and yet....
When we are alone,
we feel lonely,
we don't feel we are loved,
just depressed and sad.
The sadness is such a beautiful emotion
but when we are trapped in it
for hours, weeks or months
that leads to emotional suffering.
No one person can give the other person
everything
and yet it is enough
to offer the hand
to walk the path
towards love and beauty
together.
My fellow writer,
you and me
have such a creative side,
we can not put it in a box
to wither and die
it has to be free
to be alive and well
talking to you from my soul
in poetry, music, stories or songs
caring so deeply for each other
it is just hard to believe.
My brother in pain,
we both share
our true feelings
and are not judged by it,
love each other dreams
to hope that life is a story
that all that sadness,
vulgarity,
pity,
jelausy and sacrifice
add up to something somewhere....
It is the same with our great stories
of life,
of misery, hate and love,
make us believe in each other,
cling into each other
in the same hope
that there is some reason for it.
In life you meet someone
that fills a need in your life
that only that person can fill
or fulfill your life in a special way,
you become truly blessed.
We are that to each other.
You pour your soul out to me
and you feel that healing is a result of this.
Our hearts have connected,
in a beautiful way,
let it have the wings it deserves.
My fellow dreamer,
hand in hand
we walk,
every day
on our own distant shores,
you along your rocky lake,
me along my sandy beach.
Mind in mind
we write
every day
about a romantic bay
sharing afterglow
of the setting sun,
to stirr our emotions
but we know,
imagination takes us only so far,
we need something to hold on to...
Poems that reflect on human emotions,
Songs that seek the universal truth
that is hidden in everyday individual encounters,
Let us talk, let us sing, let us write.....
We are always here
to steer each other
in the right direction...
When I am lost
your words show me the way
that lead to you
and I see you
from the distance
coming home
to me...
Note: Three wise men
and their beautiful words
were the source of inspiration
for this hub: an ancient poet,
an unknown thinker from middle ages
and the poet of today, my soulmate...
