Based on the Hijri Lunar Calendar, today is the blessed birthday of Rumi, the Persian poet.
Congratulation on the day he enterd this planet!
"The beloved, the idol of the tavern, came to carry us HOME,
He revealed a new spring, to make us fresh and renewed.
Go, become the shadow of his cypress form; follow him, running before and behind,
Even if, like a young tree, he uproots us completely from our roots.
If his heart looks like stone, do not flee and do not leave,
For first he kills us, and then he draws us toward himself.
He comes and keeps coming—the one who must come,
And perhaps, at his coming, our heart may finally leap beyond itself."
_Rumi
