Now is the Time


Now is the time to know
That all that you do is sacred.

Now, why not consider a
Lasting truce with yourself and God.

Now is the time to understand
That all your ideas of right and wrong
Were just a child's training wheels
To be laid aside
When you can finally live
With veracity
And love.

Now is the time for you to deeply 
Compute the impossibility
That there is anything
But grace.

Now is the season to know
That everything you do
Is sacred.


-Hafiz
From "The Gift" translations by Daniel Ladinsky
