Leaving a Legacy - Barbara Taylor

A few words from Rumi, the 13th century mystic

Love’s Transformative Power

With love, you cannot bargain there;

the choice is not yours.

Love is a mirror.

It reflects only your essence,

if you have the courage to look in its face.

To the parched lips of those who

are willing to surrender,

Love will bring the wine that

changes darkness into vision,

cruelty into compassion and dust

into precious incense.

Love means to reach for the sky

and with every breath, to tear a

hundred veils.

Love means to step away from the ego, to open the eyes

of inner vision and not to take this

world so seriously.
