Jalal ad-Din Muhammad ar-Rumi
“Birdsong brings relief
to my longing.

I am just as ecstatic as they are,
but with nothing to say!

Please, universal soul, practice
some song, or something, through me!”
Rumi, The Essential Rumi

Tyler Kent White
“I can't say I know
the burdens you bear
the struggles you face
or the fights you have fought
in learning to love yourself

I do not have the answers
the solutions
or remedies
you may be searching for

but I do have something
and though it's just one thing
I will give you all that I can

and through my kindness
I hope you will start to see
that you alone have always been
and you alone will always be
just that,
enough.
for everyone.
for everything.”
Tyler Kent White

Iain S. Thomas
“Now if only I could do something about my neurosis that forces me to narrate my life out loud for everyone to hear,” I said, to no one in particular.”
Iain S. Thomas, How to be Happy: Not a Self-Help Book. Seriously

Tyler Kent White
“I am thankful
for the sunrise
and every sunset
for the safety nets
that catch my falls from grace

for the family
friends
and gentle eyed strangers
that pick me up and
place me at elevations
I have never deserved

but mostly just for you
and the soft smiles you bring
when I cannot find them
on my own.”
Tyler Kent White

Iain S. Thomas
“Draw every bad word you’ve ever called yourself on your body. Stand in the shower and pay attention to the way the words turn back into ink and disappear down the drain.”
Iain S. Thomas, How to be Happy: Not a Self-Help Book. Seriously
