Dance with Fire,
Dance with Life!
Come boom your drums
off the dark shale cliffs
and feel the echo
in your deepest heartbeat.

An ant hurries along a threshing floor with its wheat grain,
moving between huge stacks of wheat,
not knowing the abundance all around.
It thinks its one grain
is all there is to love.

– Rumi

Question: What wheat grain(s) do you find yourself getting stuck on?

Don’t ask yourself what the world needs. Ask yourself what makes you come alive and then go do that. Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.

The small man
Builds cages
For everyone he knows.
While the sage,
Who has to duck his head when the moon is low,
Keeps dropping keys all night long
For the
Beautiful
Rowdy
Prisoners.

– Hafiz

Welcome, all you beautiful rowdy prisoners!

Question:
When has someone dropped you a key?
When have you dropped a key for someone?
