The Thief Will Enter

No matter what plans you make,
no matter what you acquire,
the thief will enter from the unguarded side.
Be occupied,then, with what you really value
and let the theif take something else.

                   Mathnawi II 1505-07

Consider

Because of a fractured leg,
God bestows a wing;
likewise from the depths of the pit,
He opens a door of escape.
God said, "Don't consider
whether you're up a tree or in a hole:
Consider Me, for I am the Key of the Way." *

                  Mathnawi III 4808-09

* Hadith Qudsi
