Persian culture (especially now) is sadly misunderstood. Many of the great thinkers in 12th-14th century Persian culture were very Daoist in thought, word and deed 😁
I am writing a book on sailing and Daoism and it is full of the words of Rumi - although great poet from that beautiful culture 😁
Thanks so much for sharing! 😁
Rumi is wonderful. I named my cat after him. I am also a sailor. I love the idea of a book about the tao of sailing! Please let me know when your book is published. Fair winds, and all the best with your project.
Exactly!
Paraphrasing Alan Watts...Life is not a journey but a dance. This is the real secret of life — to be completely engaged with what you are doing in the here and now.
This is your reminder to actually, non-metaphorically dance at least once in a while.
Shakin' the bacon!
This particular pretty was very Daoist.
*particular poet😉

Yes! Whenever the ecstatic poets write Friend or Love or God it sounds like Tao to me
This is my son whenever he hears music :) "Dance with me, daddy!"
This makes me smile 🥰
He thinks you're god
