Whether that relationship is between friends, between student and teacher, or with the Divine, they spark feelings of longing (<i>There is a way from your heart to mine</i>), abandonment (<i>The rose has lost its petals but the thorn is left behind</i>), and reunion (<i>Hope comes in hopelessness</i>). Ringing with the sound of sacred mystery, the simplicity of Rumi's words make them even more potent. Let us eat a little from the hand of God. --<b>Anna Jedrziewski</b>, <i>Retailing Insight</i>-- "Reviews"<br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>Maryam Mafi</b> was born and raised in Iran.She graduated from Tufts University in 1981, where she studied Sociology and Literature.
