The Guest House - A Poem By Rumi - Narrated By Roseanna Johnson.

The guest house is a popular poem by the 13th century Persian poet - Rumi.

This poem is a reminder not to resist the thoughts and emotions passing
through you, but to meet them with courage, warmth, and respect.

The Guest House.

This being human is a guest house.
Every morning a new arrival.

A joy, a depression, a meanness,
some momentary awareness comes
as an unexpected visitor.

Welcome and entertain them all.
Even if they’re a crowd of sorrows,
who violently sweep your house
empty of its furniture,
still, treat each guest honourably.
He may be clearing you out
for some new delight.

The dark thought, the shame, the malice,
meet them at the door laughing,
and invite them in.

Be grateful for whoever comes,
because each has been sent
as a guide from beyond.

A good poem can act as a balm for your soul, as well as
prepare you for the truths you'll rediscover at this time.
