My Friday Night

Here I am

The man said, “ I called and called
But Allah never replied, “Here I am.”
Abraham explained, “Allah has said,
“Your calling my name is My reply.
Your longing for Me is My message to you.
All your attempts to reach Me
Are in reality My attempts to reach you.
Your fear and love are a noose to catch Me.
In the silence surrounding every call of “Allah”
Waits a thousand replies of “Here I am.”

-Rumi

"In real love the lover and beloved disappear, and what remains is an unbroken experience of pure, unconditional love." ~ Amma

Who knows how Mother plays?

Perchance a prophet thou-
Who knows? Who dares touch
The depths where Mother hides
Her silent failless bolts!
Perchance the child had glimpse
Of shades, behind the scenes,
With eager eyes and strained,
Quivering forms-ready
To jump in front and be
Events, resistless, strong.
Who knows but Mother, how,
And where, and when, they come?
Perchance the shining sage
Saw more than he could tell;
Who knows, what soul, and when,
The Mother makes Her throne?
What law would freedom bind?
What merit guide Her will,
Whose freak is greatest order,
Whose will resistless law?
To child may glories ope
Which father never dreamt;
May thousandfold in daughter
Her powers Mother store.

BLOG WORTHY

Great souls.

I remember being little and going to carmines with my grandparents. My grandpa and grandma ALWAYS wanted to have the family together. If we didn't have them, our family definitely wouldn't be as strong, together, and fun as it is. I pray that it stays that way. The lessons my grandparents taught my aunts, uncles, and parents are so eternal that they remind me of Amma's lessons. They were so profound in the subtle way. Not to mention incredibly humble. Now that my grandmother has passed I realize what a gift she was. She accepted everyone. EVERYONE. My friends who would come to family events loved my grandmother because she would kiss them(endlessly!). I also remember my grandparents staying at my house with me. My grandpa and grandma took me and my friend to the zoo. My friends LOVED my grandparents. I'm starting to fully realize what a treasure they were. They really were SO special. I miss them. I know they are in a better place now...but I do.

They never failed to make it to an important event in my life. Never. They also never failed to hug me and kiss me and talk to me and inquire about my life. Thank you grandma and grandpa.
