Rumi was an ancient teacher, poet, and mystic who had his fair share of tough times. Through the ups and downs, he wrote poetry that, to this day, moves the soul. We all know it's easy to get stuck in places we don't want to be: a dead end job, an unhappy marriage, a toxic family or friendship. Your goal is not to transform all of those areas at once. Your mission is to focus on transforming yourself and, as a result, your relationship to everything else in your life will change.

Poetry is often cited as our greatest use of words. The English language has well over a million of them and poets down the ages seem, at times, to make use of every single one. But often they use them in simple ways to describe anything and everything from landscapes to all aspects of the human condition. Poems can evoke within us an individual response that takes us by surprise, that opens our ears and eyes to very personal feelings.

People have been telling their love stories for thousands of years. It is the greatest common human experience. And yet, love stories coach us to believe that love is selective, somehow, that it can be boxed in and easily defined.

In this evocative five-part series, explore themes of cosmic cycles, hope, and spiritual liberation. Journey from the primordial chaos to the enlightened wisdom that pierces the veil of ignorance. The poems inspire the human spirit to seek truth and reality.

This volume contains 11 books of poems and observations by Thomas Weston and spans the period of 2006-2010. Mr. Weston is noted for his biting wit and sarcasm that pierces through the hypocrisy that so often characterizes present-day America.
