Thank Goodness He's Back......

......For my emergency blips.

A rather busy day today....... again......catching up on some work......and some time spent on my own projects.....a must....... seeing as I seem to be jaunting all over the countryside of late.

Just managed a quick trip to the park this afternoon to take the boys out and to feed a few mosquitoes.

I love this poem by Rumi (not the dog)

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honorably.

He may be cleaning you out
For some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from the beyond.

Rumi
