gentle

Currently having an arabic class but being badly distracted.
I was looking through my acquired collection of Rumi quotes,
and rediscovered one... that is lovely, and empowering.

The power of love came into me,
and I became fierce like a lion,
then tender like the evening star.
~ Rumi

This resonates at the moment,
Alhamdulillah.
And may it continue to resound
in the future, indefinitely.



It reminds me of another quote,
that was hanging on a huge advert at the Tampines train station
for quite a long time:

There's nothing so strong as gentleness,
And nothing so gentle as real strength.
