This poem entitled "The Guesthouse" by the Sufi Mystic, Rumi, advises us to "entertain all the guests of the mind", with grace and laughter.

This gave me a lot to think about and analyze. To accept all feelings and deal with them, or there will be no peaceful corner for myself.
Feelings that come and go. Great them, make them feel welcome. Approach them with kindness and curiosity. “If you allow all the guests to enter and you are at odds with some of them, you’ll find you don’t have a peaceful corner to yourself.

Dont try to resist or deny feelings and experiences that come your way. They are occurring for a reason, one that you may not understand at the time, but will eventually.
