AUTUMN -- A Good Time to be Good to Yourself
In memory of Chester, a Virgo baby, who would have been 29 this year
I love Rumi's poetry, don't you? He writes the most beautiful love poems. Here is one of my favorites:
You've no idea how hard I've looked for a gift to bring You.
Nothing seemed right.
What's the point of bringing gold to the gold mine, or water to the Ocean?
Everything I came up with was like taking spices to the Orient.
It's no good giving you my heart and soul because you already have these.
So - I've brought you a mirror.
Look at yourself and remember me.
--Jalaluddin Rumi
