“I was just there. I was the wave that gently lifted and danced in the sunlight. I was the sunlight that decided the colour blue was mundane and tinted the ocean with golden flecks in the morning and fiery red in the evening, as if upset at being replaced by the darkness. I was the darkness that fell like a blanket across the sea, as if the ocean and its creatures needed to be tucked in so that they could wake up and face the next day’s tribulations. I was the next day that washed away yesterday’s disappointments and brought with it infectious warmth and hope in the air.” PeaceBeing In The MomentTanquility Book:Djinns & Kings: The Curse of Zoa Source: Djinns & Kings: The Curse of Zoa
“Most people want something to happen all the time. That is because they are not at peace. A shepherd, on the other hand, although vigilant, must be supremely patient, and he must be at peace with himself. That is why some of the greatest teachers and prophets were shepherds. You are restless because you are not at peace with yourself. A fire is restless. It rages and spreads, burning everything in its path. Eventually, it burns out and dies down as fast as it had started. Be tranquil as a tree. When the wind blows, swing with it; when the birds sing, enjoy the song; watch the sheep eat contently at your feet.” PeaceRestlessnessBeing In The Moment Book:Djinns & Kings: The Curse of Zoa Source: Djinns & Kings: The Curse of Zoa
