Love: The Joy that wounds

Everything - strength, joy and knowledge - comes to us through love. Love burns and devours, love destroys life and gives life. Love is both secretive and revelatory. Love is a grace, Rumi tells us over and over. it is a fire, it is intoxication, an unceasing turning , a breath from heaven. It is a way for all lost people and a cure for every fever. And love is limitless, for it excludes nothing and no one. here, lovers are not alone in the world. Quite the opposite. To love someone is to love the whole world. Rumi
