I am all gratitude
To earth
For its boundless patience.

God gave me the happiest news that He loves me even if I don’t care to love Him. I gave God the greatest news that I think of Him although ignorance constantly thinks of me.

Do not neglect your body.
Lethargy can give birth
To ten million hostile forces.
28 February
Just be yourself.
Lo, God is running
Towards you.

Purity awakens the real in me:
Oneness.
Humility strengthens the real in me:
Perfection.
Gratitude enlightens the real in me:
Satisfaction.

One of the main faults
Of a fool
Is that he never changes
His mind.

Do you want to be always happy?
Then give up fighting
For negativity
And learn the beautiful art
Of self-encouragement.”
