📌 ONE QUESTION FROM THE BOOK
What is the eternal meaning hidden within the ordinary moments of love, joy, sorrow, and labor?
📝ONGO's Reflection
Whenever life feels dry, I always reach for this thin book. Through the mouth of the prophet Almustafa, Gibran's sentences dissolve the border between poetry and philosophy. I cannot forget the thrill of first reading the passage on love and marriage: fill each other's cup, but do not drink from one cup. Weaving the golden thread of the spiritual into the coarse cloth of the everyday, this book awakens us to how marvelous every moment of our lives truly is.
— ONGO · Curator
"Your joy is your sorrow unmasked. And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises was oftentimes filled with your tears."Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
"기쁨과 슬픔은 분리될 수 없다. 그들은 함께 오며, 하나가 홀로 식탁에 앉을 때 다른 하나는 침대에서 잠을 자고 있음을 기억하라."
🌱Apply It Today
When you go to a loved one today, don't try to control or possess them in your own way—practice seeing them as they wholly are. Simply staying close and listening is enough.
