Daily Reflections as a New Week is Before Us

A new work week is upon us.   This is as the World continues to be ever more dangerous and frankly depressing at times.    Egypt continues to be on the edge of the abyss.   People continue to die daily in Syria.    The most horrific thing I saw in making the "rounds" was when I saw a 20 year old Referee beheaded after he (the referee) stabbed a player who refused to leave the field in Brazil.    This is just one example of how the World has become ever more violent.   55,000 people lost their lives in Brazil last year.

Will we remember to live up to Rumi's admonition or not?  I wonder:

“Without love,
all worship is a burden,
all dancing is a chore,
all music is mere noise.
All the rain of heaven may fall into the sea.
Without love,
not one drop could become a pearl.”
— Rumi♥
