Tourist

A tourist visited a Sufi. He was astonished to see that the Sufi’s home was a simple room. The only furniture was a mat and a kerosene lamp.

Tourist: “Sufi where is your furniture?”
Sufi: “Where is yours?”
Tourist: “Mine? But I’m only a tourist here.”
Sufi: “So am I!”

I like "to inspire" as well as "to be inspired". I love to express in writing my gratitude about how wonderful the world is! It’s a great life! It’s a great world! :)
