What is the mirror of being?.. Non-being.
Always bring a mirror of non-existence as a gift.
Any other present is foolish.
An empty mirror and your worst destructive habits,
When they are held up to each other,That's when the real making begins,
That's where art and craft are.
A tailor needs a torn garment to practice his expertise.
The trunks of trees must be cut and cut again
So they can be used for fine carpentry.
Your doctor must have a broken leg to doctor,
Your defects are the way Glory gets manifested.
Whoever sees clearly what's diseased in himself
Begins to gallop on the way......
~ Mevlana Jalaludin Rumi ~
