The 40 rules of adoration.

 

Reading is truly one of the blessings in life, as it provides knowledge, comfort, and expands our imagination and perspective on the world.

Throughout most of my life, reading has been my best friend, and I find immense happiness in discovering new and captivating books. Even during my secondary school years, my father would gift me books on politics, which sparked my love for community involvement and political work after college.

During challenging times, I often find solace by immersing myself in a novel, delving deep into its lines and intricacies. I can vividly picture the small details, the scenery, the scents, and the lights, adding to the beauty of the reading experience.

Reading allows our minds to expand and nourishes our intellect. It serves as mental nutrition, providing a space to retreat to when life doesn't align with our desires.

Exploring different worlds through reading nourishes the soul and allows us to perceive things that we may have never considered before.

During a recent phone call with a friend, we discussed the book "The 40 Rules of Love" or sometimes translated as "40 Rules of Adoration." We delved into the realm of Sufism and how Sufis perceive and embrace life through love, rather than fear. This book has had a profound impact on my life, as it beautifully articulates the feelings in my heart on paper.

I highly recommend that everyone reads this book, as its profound messages and the opening of the heart it brings are truly transformative. I wish for every person who loves reading to experience the same pleasure and fulfillment I feel after finishing a book.

Now, it's time to hit the hay.

Goodnight, everyone.
