Hafiz: The Astonishing Light of Your Own Being


I wish I could show you
When you are lonely or in darkness,
The astonishing light
Of your own Being!
 
- Hafiz
(as translated by Daniel Ladinsky)

I really love the picture and came by your blog while finding a picture to match the quote: 'I wish I could show you when you are lonely or in darkness the astonishing light of your own being.' Did you take the picture yourself? Where was it taken? Looks like a good place to put on my bucket list :)

Hi Aydan. Yes, I love this quote. I do not know who took this photo. I stumbled across it when I did a search, probably for sunset or sunrise photos. I also would love to know where this is. I hope you find out! :-)
