L is for Love

The Neighbor Thing, or, Love Actively:

Our version of the “Love” design is broken up and the letters scattered around the worship space. There is sand on each letter but not enough to cover the colors.

 

Poem by 14th-century Persian poet and mystic Hafiz:

Look how a mirror will reflect,

with perfect calm and acceptance,

all actions

before it.

There is no act in this world

that will ever cause the mirror

to look

away.

There is no act in this world

that will ever make the mirror

say

“no.”

The mirror, like perfect love,

will just keep giving of itself

to all

before it.

How did the mirror ever get like that,

so polite, so grand,

so compassionate?

It watched God.
