“Love is the bridge between you and everything.” ~ Rumi

I am learning to run in the direction of my dreams when I can, and embracing the times when all I can do is take a tiny step toward them. It takes courage to follow your passions and even to admit or acknowledge that you are even allowed to have passions, goals, and dreams. When you’ve been through trauma, abuse, or gaslighting, it is hard to trust your heart, to trust yourself and your intuition. They say “follow your heart, but take your head with you.”

“Wherever you are, and whatever you do, be in love.” ~ Rumiĭeciding to be in a state of love wherever and whenever and whatever we do can be so hard when someone or something annoys, frustrates, and bother us.Īnd yet, there is always something to learn from that person or situation, which can be such a blessing that it is difficult to not love the teacher. What “living from the heart” means to me is to strive to make love the center of everything we do. You know how they say “the sky’s the limit”? I believe Rumi is saying here that you can only live up to your potential when you live from the heart. “Only from the heart can you touch the sky.” ~ Rumi I learned so much from these Rumi quotes, and I’ll share my thoughts on each, but I do want you to ponder, analyze, and reflect on them, so you can come to your own conclusions. I am a big Rumi fan and I’ve shared other Rumi quotes before, but today I want to focus on Rumi quotes about LOVE.Įveryday is a day to love, treasure, and cherish ourselves, those around us, and everything around us.Īnd these Rumi quotes have really helped me have a deeper understanding of what love is.
