Thoughts

“Conventional knowledge is death to our souls.
We must become ignorant of what we’ve been taught,
And be instead bewildered…
Run from what’s profitable and comfortable.
If you drink those liqueurs, you’ll spill the springwater of your real life.
Forget safety.
Live where you fear to live…”
~ RUMI, Feeling the Shoulder of the Lion
