Love is the mother

"Love is the mother.
We are her children.

She shines inside us, visible-invisible,
as we lose trust
or feel it start to grow again."
(Rumi)

I found this quotation this morning and loved it; I really have nothing to add -- except the image, of course, which was created in response. It is a compilation of three images: a Buddha from Taliesin, Frank Lloyd Wright's estate outside Phoenix; some glassware in a restaurant in Taiwan, and lights at night in the Seattle ferry terminal parking lot.
There is beauty everywhere.
