Touched by Rumi: January 2020

Rumi has the ability to reach people of all backgrounds, ages, religions, and more. His wisdom sparks us to look within and influences us to view ourselves and the world in a different way. In this section of our Monthly Newsletter we ask people to show us how Rumi has affected them and their way of thinking.


 
Looking on the news these days, I felt the need to travel back to Rumi’s time to remind myself that he did not live in an easy time and he still wrote 60,000 verses on who we are in our connection to ourselves and others. Verses describe our essence as love, a choice that is ours regardless of the circumstance we are in!
