Your depression is connected to your insolence and refusal to praise. Whoever feels himself walking on the path, and refuses to praise–that man or woman steals from others every day–is a shoplifter! The sun became full of light when it got hold of itself. Angels only began shining when they achieved discipline. The sun goes out whenever the cloud of not-praising comes. The moment the foolish angel felt insolent, he heard the door close.
Rumi
Clouds
Love isn’t the work
Love isn’t the work of the tender and the gentle; Love is the work of wrestlers. The one who becomes a servant of lovers is really a fortunate sovereign. Don’t ask anyone about Love; ask Love about Love. Love is a cloud that scatters pearls. Rumi
Escape from the black
Escape from the black cloud that surrounds you.
Then you will see your own light as radiant as the full moon.
Rumi
I want your sun
I want your sun to reach my raindrops, so your heat can raise my soul upward like a cloud.
Rumi
Don’t be sad! Because
Don’t be sad! Because God sends hope in the most desperate moments. Don’t forget, the heaviest rain comes out of the darkest clouds. Rumi
Fasting cleanses the soul
Fasting cleanses the soul, raises the mind, subjects one’s flesh to the spirit, renders the heart contrite and humble, scatters the clouds of concupiscence, quenches the fire of lust, and kindles the true light of chastity.
Saint Augustine
All Birds find shelter during a rain
All Birds find shelter during a rain. But Eagle avoids rain by flying above the Clouds. Problems are common, but attitude makes the difference!!!
