The One You Trust

by Amalia

Friendship is as precious as gold.
Why entrust it to one who will betray it?
Spend time near the One with whom your trusts
are safe from loss or violation.
Be close with the One who created human nature,
the One who nurtured the character of the prophets —
who if given a lamb, will give you back a whole flock of sheep.
Truly, the Sustainer cares for and increases every good quality

Jalal ad-Din Rumi
