because love does that.

here is a beautiful poem I was given last week.

Love Does That
By Rumi

All day long a little burro labors, sometimes
with heavy loads on her back and sometmes just with worries
about things that bother only burros,

And worries, as we know, can be more exausting
than physical labor.

Once in a while a kind monk comes
to her stable and brings
a pear, but more
than that,

he looks into the burro's eyes and touches her ears

and for a few seconds the burro is free
and even seems to laugh,

because love does
that.

Love frees.
