Many of us feel constrained by the attempts of our governments to control the virus – lockdowns, curfews, isolation from our loved ones.
We are never really alone. Going within and reflecting opens up a whole new world. While meditation calms us, I have found having something to reflect on and to sense my own feelings, is a constructive practice that helps me to re-connect with the wisdom of my soul.
To help me with my reflections on Rumi’s poetry, I have chosen to use Paper Trail’s book – Rumi’s Reflection Journal. It gives me individual Rumi quotes to consider. Thank you Paper Trail.

You are not a drop in the ocean.
You are the entire Ocean, in a drop
Jalal al-Din Rumi
During lockdown I have met my soul. She is called Lucinda. I always have Lucinda with me, a spark of the Divine within whom I can find all that is Divine.
I am seeking to know Lucinda better, to listen to her promptings in my life. I feel an increasing ‘knowing’ within me which I am seeking to engage with in everyday life – at home and at work.
This ‘knowing’ takes me beyond my normal mediumship capabilities to a depth of wisdom no single person is able to achieve even in a number of lives.
