This week is a lovely poem called Rise Up by Rumi. His wise words bear to witness that there is always a light within the dark. A reminder that Dark Softly Tales is creating shorter, unscripted, episodes for a few weeks. We'll be back to regular schedule at the end of April. ;-)Music by <a href="Do not turn to look at every beggar that beckons – you belong to me! Do not sell yourself short, For you are priceless. Part the waters with your staff – you are today's Moses. Tear through the cloak of fog! You are of the light, the same light as Mohammad. Shatter the mirrors of the beautiful, you are the dazzling Joseph. Blow the breath of life like Christ – you, too, are of that air. Break away from the unscrupulous; do not fall for the deceit of ghouls. You are of noble origin – you are from the highest high. By spirit, you are deathless – imperishable; magnificent from within. You belong to the glorious – you are of divine radiance. What have you seen of your own beauty? You are still veiled... One dawn, like the sun, you will rise up from within yourself. It is a shame to be shrouded this way like the moon under cloud. Tear through the cloud of body! You are the magnificent moon. You are like a hawk whose feet are bound, tethered to the body – It is with your own claws that you must untie the knots. How joyous is gold when it enters the fire! for it is within the flames where it can show its essence and radiate its virtues. Do not run away from the fire's flames! What will happen if you step into them for trial's sake? It will not burn you, I swear; your face will glow, like gold. For you are Abraham's kin; ancient knowingness is yours. No mine has a jewel like you! This world has no life like you! For this is the world of decay and you are life-giving life. https://lyricstranslate.com" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Chillmore</a>
