Rumi’s Reflections: Alison Wem’s Journal – Day 7

My soul is from elsewhere, I’m sure of that,

and I intend to end up there.

 

Jalal al-Din Rumi

 

I talked with my soul for many years before I realised who it was.

Throughout a life threatening childhood illness, he was always there comforting and encouraging me. He held my hand through the dark of the night when I was in pain.

In adulthood I was grateful to realise who he is, my best friend and my soul. He is the spark of divinity within me and brings me calmness, harmony and wisdom. We will always be together and I will go wherever he does. White Cloud, my light in the darkness shinning the way.
