Quote reblogged from fern and moss with 132 notes
Once a young woman asked me,
“How does it feel to be a man?”
And I replied,“My dear,
I am not so sure.”Then she said,
“Well, aren’t you a man?”And this time I replied,
“I view gender
As a beautiful animal
That people often take for a walk on a leash
And might enter in some odd contest
To try to win strange prizes.My dear,
A better question for Hafiz
Would have been,‘How does it feel to be a heart?’
For all I know is Love,
And I find my heart Infinite
And Everywhere!”
Hafiz
