Peace be with you: I
found this poem by Rumi that I wanted to share
with you. It's called "The Guest House" it's from the book Essential Rumi and
was translated by Coleman Barks.
The Guest House
This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.
A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
As an unexpected visitor.
Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.
The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.
Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.
Read it out loud if you can.
It's quite beautiful.
By the way, the Open Mind Bookstore now has a Facebook fan page. So if you're on
Facebook, type in 'The Open Mind Bookstore' and it should come up. Should be a
great way to stay in touch.
