Dance...Love...Sing...Live !

A lover asked his beloved, 
Do you love yourself more 
than you love me? 

 The beloved replied, 
I have died to myself

and I live for you.






I've disappeared from myself
and my attributes.
I am present only for you.




I have forgotten all my learnings,
but from knowing you
I have become a scholar.




I have lost all my strength,
but from your power
I am able.





If I love myself
I love you.
If I love you
I love myself.

...RUMI




I hope you enjoyed my tea bag illustrations last week too !


Wondering why the first one has that pinkish hue?

...well I used the natural organic color from beetroot here  :)

Be awesome today !!
