When the world praises you,hell laughs in glee.When the world opposes you,hell cries in sorrow,”O my God,we are losing one of our people.

Finding the Way Home – A Journey of the Spirit
When the world praises you,hell laughs in glee.When the world opposes you,hell cries in sorrow,”O my God,we are losing one of our people.

The life of one who has no determination,
Of one who acts without a firm plan,
Is like a pond without a shore.
Though there is water in plenty,
It flows away,
Rendering that life worthless.
M.R.Bawa Muhaiyaddeen
Perform your duty to all lives
Without favoritism
And it will become the duty that God performs
Towards all His creations.
Act without expecting a reward
And you will receive the rewards of God.

I watched my dog once
chasing his tail
in a circle
He was very
earnest.
Even if I had told him
it was a
mistake
He wouldn’t have stopped.
Around and around I go
My tail changes
colour and form.
One minute it’s a book,
the next a woman,
then a gem.
If I give my dog
something tasty
he might stop.
What prize
would make me stop running
and bring me home?
