• Never lose hope
  when the beloved
  sends you away.
  If you're abandoned
  if you're left hopeless
  tomorrow for sure
  you'll be called again.
  If the door is shut
  right in your face
  keep waiting with patience
  don't leave right away.
  Seeing your patience
  your love will soon
  summon you with grace
  raise you like a champion.

• God works in mysterious ways. Things may look good outwardly, but there may be evil contained inside. Let no one be deluded by pride that he himself has conceived good ideas or done good deeds. If everything were as it seemed, the Prophet would not have cried out with such illuminated and illuminating perspicacity, Show me things as they are! You make things appear beautiful when in reality they are ugly; You make things appear ugly when in reality they are beautiful. Show us therefore each thing as it is lest we fall into a snare and be ever errant.

  Where tears are shed divine mercy is shown
