Keep Walking

It can be hard to keep moving forward when we don’t know what the future holds.  13th century poet Rumi reminds us to keep on walking, and let the beauty we love be what we do.  An amazing message that fits this moment perfectly.   


Keep Walking

by Jalal ad-Din Rumi

Keep walking, though there's no place to get to.

Don't try to see through the distances.

That's not for human beings.

Move within, but don't move the way fear makes you move.

Today, like every other day, we wake up empty and frightened.

Don't open the door to the study and begin reading.

Take down a musical instrument.

Let the beauty we love be what we do.

There are hundreds of ways to kneel and kiss the ground.
