"We suddenly realize that life is in no way lasting, or permanent… we eat, dress, and brush our teeth. We continue with the marionette-like motions of life, however unhinged it feels to do so. Then, ever so slowly, the illusion takes over again—until we forget that we are actors in a play. Until the next tragedy strikes—to wake us up." — Aug 09, 2025 02:29PM

“The sons of Adam are limbs of a frame,
for in creation, from one soul they came.
If hard times cause one member to feel pain,
at ease and rest, the others can’t remain.
If a limb’s in pain and you do not care,
the title ‘human being’ you can’t share!”

“The Truth has shared so much of Itself
With me
That I can no longer call myself
A man, a woman, and angel
Or even pure
Soul.
Love has
Befriended Hafiz so completely
It has turned to ash
And freed
Me
Of every concept and image
My mind has ever known.”

“My point is that a physician who has never done any harm, or at least confronted the risk of harm, has probably never done much of anything to help a patient either. And as in the case of my teenage stabbing victim, sometimes doing nothing is the riskiest choice of all.”

such joy is mine when you resolve my doubts
that doubting pleases me no less than knowing!”
