He who has Faith has…
an inward reservoir of courage, hope,
confidence, calmness, and assuring trust
that all will come out well – even though
to the world it may appear to come out most badly.

– B.C. Forbes

To my one true Faith,
My Love, My Heart, My Joy.
I Love You, baby.

Look to this day, For it is life, the very life of life.

In its brief course lie all the verities and realities of your existence;

the bliss of growth, the glory of action, the splendor of beauty.

For yesterday is but a dream And tomorrow is only a vision,

But today well lived makes every yesterday a dream of happiness and every tomorrow a vision of hope.

Look well, therefore to this day, such is the salutation of the dawn.

- The Sufi, 1200 BC

If you believe it, you can make it happen.
That’s all you need,
is belief —
and of course the willingness to follow through
on whatever needs to be done on your part.

— Barefoot Doctor:

This day of love I take a vow
To love you well through all the days
Of long and labyrinthine ways:
But I would love you anyhow.These words bespeak my unbent will
To love despite the passing pain,
Anger, lust, fear, silence, shame:
But without words I’d love you still.

A vow of love’s the final seal
Upon an edict fully writ,
Not altering the sense of it,
Nor adding to the love we feel;

Or like an oarsman worth his weight
Upon a current swift and strong
That bears the fragile boat along
To where it meets its cherished fate.

So why a vow on Valentine?
Like any vow, to bind me to
Whatever I am bound to do:
Words that ride the wordless wind.

Pisces:  Light bulb?  What light bulb?

And keep up prayer in the two parts of the day and in the first hours of the night;
surely good deeds take away evil deeds this is a reminder to the mindful.

- The Holy Prophet 11.114

And stay in your houses and do not display your finery
like the displaying of the ignorance of yore;
and keep up prayer, and pay the poor-rate,
and obey Allah and His Apostle.
Allah only desires to keep away the uncleanness from you,
O people of the House! and to purify you a (thorough) purifying.

– (The Clans 33.33)
