Peeking Out

If of thy mortal goods thou art bereft,

And from thy slender store two loaves alone to thee are left,

Sell one, and with the dole

Buy hyacinths to feed thy soul.

This beautiful verse was written by MOSLIH EDDIN (MUSLIH-UN-DIN) SAADI (SADI), who was a major Persian poet of the medieval times. It is just one of the many beautiful verses in his book Gulistan ("The Rose Garden").

I hope you are all enjoying your Sunday.

 We are celebrating my son's Birthday today, as well as his passing all his prelims and being ready to start research on his doctoral dissertation. Needless to say, I am very proud of him.

I am looking forward to finally seeing "Riverdance" and "Celtic Woman" next month.

Wishing you all a beautiful week filled with lots of sunshine.
