The Guest House


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

A Joy, 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 clearing 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 beyond.

Rumi


私が一番好きなポエムを今日みんなにシェアーします。
日本語に直すのはちょっと難しいのでごめんなさいw


ただ RUMIのポエムは心にジーンと来る。
これを読むとなんだか私の悩みなんて
チッチャイなぁ~って思うのさ♪
でも チッチャイ悩みも悩みで
頭で言い聞かせても心がついて
いけない時ってあるよね。

私の心も石のように強くなれたらいいなぁ
そうしたら壊れないのにね。
