In our postmodern age, with all things socially mediated, we often forget those wise sages of years past, who had deeper insights about how to live life, than we might have imagined.

Rumi was an ancient teacher, poet, and mystic who had his fair share of tough times. Through the ups and downs, he wrote poetry that, to this day, moves the soul. We all know it's easy to get stuck in places we don't want to be: a dead end job, an unhappy marriage, a toxic family or friendship. Your goal is not to transform all of those areas at once. Your mission is to focus on transforming yourself and, as a result, your relationship to everything else in your life will change.

طيور أيلول معرِض فنّي للقرية اللبنانيّة في شتّى مظاهرها. ولولا أنّ ترابكِ من تراب القرية، ثمّ لولا أنّك تملكين قسطًا كبيرًا من رهافة الحسّ، وسلامة الذوق، ودقّة الملاحظة، وعمق الشعور بالقيَم الكلاميّة والإنسانيّة والجماليّة، لما تأتّى لكِ أن تصوّري القرية ذلك التصوير

The Prophet is Kahlil Gibran's most famous work. He focuses on human relationships, as well as many other topics, including love, friendship, passion, work, good and evil, and time in a beautiful, simple, lyrical style.
