The wisdom of Rumi

A Peacock

Birdsong brings relief
to my longing
I’m just as ecstatic as they are
but with nothing to say!
Please unveil soul, practice
some song or something through me.
From Essential Rumi
by Coleman Barks

About Michaela

I am a wanderer and a wonderer, like you are. I love our journey and to walk in the company of friends – to learn, experience, share, laugh, cry and above all I simply love this marvelous, magical, mysterious life. I have no plan (cannot believe I am saying this) and my only intention is to be truthful to myself and others.

    A beautiful prayer out of the vastness of deep presence.

    Wasn’t this Ekhart’s prayer under that tree in England?

    I wonder.
