There are so many gifts still
unopened from your birthday,
there are so many hand-crafted presents
that have been sent to your door by God.
The Beloved does not mind repeating,
*Everything I have is also yours.*
From 'The Gift' - Poems by Hafiz
No matter what looms ahead,
if you can eat today,
enjoy the sunlight today,
mix good cheer with friends today,
enjoy it and bless God for it.
Do not look back on happiness --
or dream of it in the future.
You are only sure of today;
do not let yourself be cheated out of it.

In the end, dear friend,
it is always between us and God,
not between us and them.
Mother Teresa
