Rumi – A Cap to Wear in Both Worlds

There is a passion in me that doesn’t

long for anything from another human being.

I was given something else, a cap to wear

in both worlds.  It fell off. No matter.

One morning I went to a place beyond dawn.

A source of sweetness that flows

and is never less.  I have been shown

a beauty that would confuse both worlds,

But I won’t cause that uproar.  I am

nothing but a head set on the ground

as a gift to Shams.

Midnight, but your forehead

shines with dawn.  You dance as

you come to me and curl by curl

undo the dark.  Let jealousy end.

There’s a strange frenzy in my head,

of birds flying,

each particle circulating on its own.

Is the one I love everywhere?

Take Paul Ryan’s claim that with this bill, “the typical family of four will save $1,182 a year on their taxes." Turns out that’s Half True, as rated by our Truth-O-Meter. But it’s more complicated than that....

Post from eLearning Heroes....

Timelines are a great way to present sequenced information in a single interaction. You can provide historical info to learners and walk them through processes, one step at a time. They display how events took place over time in a digestible way. And since Storyline makes it super easy to create custom interactivity, it’s a piece of cake to create and customize timeline interactions. https://community.articulate.com/articles/5-time-saving-templates-for-your-next-timeline-project?

Friday the 13th brings us a passage from Rumi...

"...May this marriage be full of laughter,
our every day a day in paradise.
May this marriage be a sign of compassion,
a seal of happiness here and hereafter.
May this marriage have a fair face and a good name,
an omen as welcomes the moon in a clear blue sky.
I am out of words to describe
how spirit mingles in this marriage."
