"I died as a mineral and became a plant,
I died as a plant and rose to animal,
I died as animal and I was Man.
Why should I fear? When was I less by dying?"

Tomorrow (9/30) is the 800th anniversary of the birth of 
poet/mystic/philosopher Jalal al-Din Muhammad Rumi.  Celebrate with a 
book of verse, friends, and wine (literal or metaphorical).

Peace,
Jahan Isfahani,
(sometimes mistaken for Niccolo)
