Additional quotes by Hafez

"I once asked a bird,
"How do you fly in this gravity of darkness ?"
And she replied "Love lifts me"

~ Hafiz~"

All happenings needed to be; accept that, my
dear. Ask for any forgiveness one more time
if you must,

ask for forgiveness one more time if you must,
then move on to your glory and sublime reign.
