in-between love

healing
Shamsa from the Shahnameh of Ferdowsi (detail); produced by the library of a Safavid Shah, Tabriz, 1522-35. islamic art makes my heart explode into a million small pieces of important light.when i say one day i want my house to be filled with it, including architecture like doorways and fireplaces, mosaics upon mosaics, i mean it. i want Allah’s ninety nine names placed in the most unusual, and perfect places to keep us safe, to keep us in remembrance, to make our home into a space of mercy, gratitude, forgiveness and eternal becoming.  p.s. my middle name is shams *which means sun*.
