Sorrow…

March 3, 2007

I’ve just decided I’m as smart, or maybe a trifle smarter than Rumi. I mean, read this philosophy of his. Doesn’t it seem like I wrote it? LOL…At least it sounds like my philosophy in life! I know Z will disagree, but that’s what I think. HeheĀ 

The most secure place to hide a treasure of gold
is in some desolate, unnoticed place.
Why would anyone hide treasure
in plain sight?
And so it is said,
“Joy is hidden beneath sorrow.”
-Rumi, “Mathnawi” [III, 1133-1134]

    ya but u always whine for PURE HAPPINESS without sorrow, go read your previous posts u whined endlessly for ‘pure happiness’…
    and now u say you are better then rumi!!

    i dont get ur double standards its ok if u get happiness folded in sorrow but everyone else should get it in plain sight soo that it can be pure happiness, otherwise u dont think its fair with them!!

    and abviously how can i agree wid such obvious contradiction.hehe

    i meant that my theory bout life is generally this…tht i always tel everybody to earn happiness themselves n to extract it from every moment, be it “sorrowful”
    its true i *might* hav been whinin earlier but that doesnt change my philosophy!
