The task for today

Today is most definitely fall.  Grey, damp and cool.  I often find myself resisting this time of year and feel a sense of dread with each day becoming shorter.  I woke this morning feeling the heaviness of the sky but as I've carried on with my Monday, I've been reflecting on a poem by Rumi that was posted on facebook by a dear friend this morning and I find myself feeling lighter.

Your task is not to seek for love,
but merely to seek and find all the barriers
within yourself that you have built against it.

Just feels perfect for today.  And a good reminder always.
