Your Real Friend (12/8/2024)

The one who cuts through your neck

is the one who suffers your sorrow.

The one who crowns you

is the one who deceives you and robs you of your modesty.

The one who loads you with goods

is the one who burdens you.

Your real Friend is the one who takes you away from You.

The Rubaiyat of Rumi, The Ergin Translations, Volume 3, rubai 1227, page 160.
