Many thanks to Lianne of Maternal Alchemy for this.
“As the great 14-century Sufi poet Hafiz reminds us:
Just sit there right now
Don’t do a thing
Just rest.
For your separation from God,
From Love,
Is the hardest work
In this
World.”

Must. Take. Nap.
Yeah, I loved that one.
It is hard work.. that separation. Good thing we have the internet, so at least I’m not separated from you.
This reminds me of a Buddhism-themed poster I heard about which encourages passers by to prepare to do absolutely nothing and then, do it! Good advice (and not meant for the faint at heart…)
