Until the grapes are crushed
There is no wine to drink
Until the flowers are crushed
There are no perfumed fragrances
Until the gold goes through fire
There is no jewelry carved beautifully
Until we do not go through our suffering
There is no pleasure awaiting us
Until the clouds do not thunder
There is no rain falling anywhere
Until the hate does not stop
There is no love found anywhere
Until the anger does not subside
There is no peace at all
So during these grinding times, know that the road of your life is under construction.Β There are seemingly more pebbles, muck, stones and debris that surrounds us.Β But Unless and Until we hold on to divinity with the deep conviction that the Master is planning that smooth freeway to take us to higher destinations in great speed, then the journey through the process of this construction will be that of courage, learning, expanding and ascending.Β
Let us all be blessed by Him. His mercy and grace are always with us. All this shall soon pass and we can all live happily and joyously as one Big Happy Family.
So true Kamal. Though we all know this, sometimes during testing times we dilute our trust in him and embrace worry and fear….your poem has come as a timely reminder for us not to forget to believe in him. Let us all pray for the well being of mankind and send healing vibes all across. Hope that we get over this dark phase soon with light shining once again in our lives. πβ€οΈ
