"God speaks to each of us as he makes us, then walks with us silently out of the night.
These are the words we dimly hear:
You, sent out beyond your recall, go to the limits of your longing.
Embody me."
- Rainer Maria Rilke, *Rilke's Book of Hours: Love Poems to God,*
translated by Anita Barrows and Joanna Macy

do you enjoy Rumi?
I adore Rumi and Hafiz! They make me swoon.

Rilke's "live the questions" has always meant much to me in my spiritual journey.
