ReplyDeleteThank you for your kind words. Remember the kind words of Hafiz from his poem "To Build a Swing":
DeleteYou carry all the ingredients to turn your life into a nightmare.
Don't mix them!
You have all the genius to build a swing in your backyard for God.
That sounds like a hell of a lot more fun.
Let's start laughing, drawing blueprints,
Gathering our talented friends.
You carry all the ingredients to turn your existence into joy,
Mix them, mix them!
