Galaxy of Glow Worms that illuminated the top of the cave - Nile River Caves in Charleston, New Zealand Sit with your friends; don't go back to sleep. Don't sink like a fish to the bottom of the sea.Surge like an ocean, don't scatter yourself like a storm.Life's waters flow from darkness. Search the darkness, don't run from it.Night travelers are full of light, and you are, too; don't leave this companionship.Be a wakeful candle in a golden dish, don't slip into the dirt like quicksilver.The moon appears for night travelers, be watchful when the moon is full.Poem by RUMIREFLECTION:Do you run from darkness? Try to escape what you fear?What if you could embrace the darkness?Everyone has a dark/shadow side that they often try to repress or hide from others. Yet RUMI is encouraging us to search the darkness. Sit with friends and travel companions. Light awaits.

How can you presence this situation and open the door to a new freedom.
