Creation is love
You will never receive the love destined for you, or give the love you are destined to give, if you fail to realize the love you are.
You are a pure gift. At every breath you draw, your existence is breathed into you. It is Love; it is from Love. Love creates you, and Love is the substance of you. The pain of life hides this truth from you, but it is nonetheless true – truer than all the loss, truer than all the suffering. Existence itself – your very own existence – is pure Mercy.
- From Charles Upton’s excellent and insightful book, Reflections of Tasawwuf.
