Five Minutes Of Ancient Wisdom - The Guest House

Some of the events that arise today will be pleasant, and we welcome these happenings with open arms. We are less enthusiastic about the difficult experiences of the day, We are inclined to push these to one side. We might even fall back on our habit of operating on autopilot
and responding in a way that adds to the difficulty. The poet Rumi has some words that will help us to greet the events of the day with calmness and balance.
