What is Clearing You Out?

This poem by Rumi has me thinking:

The Guest House

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all!
Even if they're a crowd of sorrows
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture;
still treat each guest honorably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.

-Rumi

Feel the Feng Shui of the flow?

My heart is digging it today!

  1. This is the poem my cousin read to me many times while Martin was at home with hospice. Has definite significance for me.
