A Saint Belongs To All Humanity.

Turkey In General Became Too Involved With What Is Happening In Egypt And In Syria. Some Politicians With Neo-ottoman Dreams Developed This Idea Of Being A Major Player In The Middle East, Which Hasn't Gone As Expected.

Patience Does Not Mean To Passively Endure. It Means To Be Farsighted Enough To Trust The End Result Of A Process. What Does Patience Mean? It Means To Look At The Thorn And See The Rose, To Look At The Night And See The Dawn. Impatience Means To Be So Shortsighted As To Not Be Able To See The Outcome. The Lovers Of God Never Run Out Of Patience, For They Know That Time Is Needed For The Crescent Moon To Become Full.

One Thing That Has Helped Me Personally In The Past Was To Stop Interfering With The People Around Me And Getting Frustrated When I Couldn’t Change Them. Instead Of Intrusion And Passivity, May I Suggest Submission? Some People Make The Mistake Of Confusing “submission” With “weakness”, Whereas It Is Anything But.

What I’m Saying Is, My Friends, One Ought To Be Able To Let Go. If A Path Does Not Please Us, Instead Of Insisting On Going That Specific Way, Of Making Our Selfishness The Guide, We Ought To Forsake. The Books We Cannot Write, The Films We Cannot Shoot, The Projects We Cannot Develop, The Jobs We Cannot Pursue And The People Who No Longer Love Us. Being Able To Let Go, At Times, Is The Most Beautiful Of All!
