Mirrors of Love, Mirrors of Ourselves

AI Gemini Generated Image

I was in a restaurant with somebody who

I particularly liked. They were very spiritual, too.

We were speaking about philosophy. 

And, there was also, you know, attraction 

and stuff like that, and the energy 

just kept building. And suddenly, I couldn’t 

believe my eyes, she turned into me. 

And in that moment, I understood what love is. 

It’s a force that sends us in search of ourselves.

And it begins by seeing ourselves or 

mirrors of ourself in another person.

I Once Had A Dream...

 

I once had a dream 

which was a poem unfolding. 

The imagery in dreams can be so strong, 

so rich, 

giving us glimpses of our true essence, 

our soul. 

There is a tradition in Sufism 

of doing dreamwork, 

creating dreams circles, 

and delving into dreams 

which have deeper symbolism. 

When I read Llewellyn Vaughn-Lee’s book

 “Catching the Thread: 

Sufism, Dreamwork, and Jungian Psychology,” 

I found I remembered my dreams more, 

and started to see messages 

in their imagery and symbolism. 

I have often thought 

this might be a lovely practice, 

a dream circle.
