If you are irritated by every rub, how will your mirror be polished?
Rumi
All too often we think that everything in our world should be without friction and unhappiness, once we begin a spiritual journey. Yet the opposite begins to happen. What is that about?
The silversmith sits before the fire and never takes his eyes off the metal he holds in the hot flame. He is waiting to see his image. Once that happens, he knows the transformation is complete.
