Rumi Quotes About Mothers

• Every midwife knows
  that not until a mother’s womb
  softens from the pain of labor
  will a way unfold
  and the infant find that opening to be born.
  Oh friend!
  There is treasure in your heart,
  it is heavy with child.
  Listen.
  All the awakened ones,
  like trusted midwives are saying,
  'welcome this pain.
  It opens the dark passage of Grace.

  Rumi

• I profess the religion of love,
  Love is my religion and my faith.

  My father is love
  My prophet is love
  My God is love
  I am a child of love
  I have come only to speak of love.
