    Hafez is one of my all-time favourite poets and mystics. I hope one day to be able to read his work in the original.

      That’s cool. That particular quote seems extremely heartfelt. As if there were a direct connection from his mind to everyone who has ever felt alone. As if “big mind” was reminding itself that everything’s going to be ok.
