A wealth you cannot imagine

A wealth you cannot imagine
flows through you.

Do not consider what strangers say.
Be secluded in your secret heart-house,
that bowl of silence.

Talking, no matter how humble-seeming,
is really a kind of bragging.

Let silence be the art
you practice.

—Rumi, translation by Coleman Barks from Rumi: Bridge to the Soul. Thank you The Beauty We Love.
