You have no need to travel anywhere - journey within yourself. Enter a mine of rubies and bathe in the splendor of your own light.
Make everything in you an ear, each atom of your being, and you will hear at every moment what the Source is whispering to you...you are -we all are-the beloved of the beloved, and in every moment, in every event of your life , the Beloved is whispering to you exactly what you need to hear and know.

Don't look to anyone for your needs, for the One who created you, waters you.
Beauty surrounds us, but usually we need to be walking in a garden to know it.

This is what love does and continues to do. It tastes like honey to adults and milk to children.
I closed my mouth and spoke to you in a hundred silent ways.
