“Love is a reciprocal feeling. Just as water will mirror the face that peers into it similarly love is a reflection of hearts. Rhythm is the basis of life, not steady forward progress. The forces of creation, destruction, and preservation have a whirling, dynamic interaction. We must learn not to disassociate the airy flower from the earthy root, for the flower that is cut off from its root fades, and its seeds are barren, whereas the root, secure in mother earth, can produce flower after flower and bring their fruit to maturity.”
The Zohar (Kabbalah), first printed on this day in 1558
