I was going to write on how when I may get pulled by the world’s duality and get negative, I remind myself that life is sacred and my focus shifts, gets higher. However, I found this poem which speaks beautifully to me about life’s sacredness and I hope it does for you as well.
Now is the Time
Now is the time to know
That all that you do is sacred.
Now, why not consider
A lasting truce with yourself and God.
Now is the time to understand
That all your ideas of right and wrong
Were just a child’s training wheels
To be laid aside
When you finally live
With veracity
And love.
Hafiz is a divine envoy
Whom the Beloved
Has written a holy message upon.
My dear, please tell me,
Why do you still
Throw sticks at your heart
And God?
What is it in that sweet voice inside
That incites you to fear?
Now is the time for the world to know
That every thought and action is sacred.
This is the time
For you to compute the impossibility
That there is anything
But Grace.
Now is the season to know
That everything you do
Is sacred.

This is really beautiful Marie, I feel like this is talking to me…what am doing is indeed sacred and this is the right time! thanks for this. Your blog always inspires me greatly!
Oh,thank you, Veeh. You inspire me as well, and, it’s precious to live with the awareness that every moment is sacred and Hafiz expresses it so beautifully.
Very true, and very beautiful. I hope you never stop writing, you have such a gift. ☺
Thanks so much for the encouragement, it’s much appreciated. 🙂
Don’t know if anyone else is having this problem but the people I’m following keep dropping off my list of people I follow, and I get a message asking me to resubscribe ~~ anybody?
Janet, just checked to see if I had any emails from WP and no I am not having this problem…but good to know this is happening in order to be alert. Don’t want to lose the people I follow…
Now is the time to know
That all that you do is sacred… This is gorgeous… I love Hafiz’s poetry and sensibility… Sadly, he didn’t make it , 😦
Glad you enjoyed Hafiz’s beautiful words. I also enjoy Rumi’s poetry and the wisdom behind his words.
