Searching For Elias




Elias Sorokin a friend of ours has been missing for 9 days now from the Santa Cruz, CA area. It seems impossible to blog about anything else. He and his mom, in particular, along with all of the large community of family and friends searching for him are constantly in my heart on my mind. I've include a link to a facebook group dedicated to finding Elias and will be posting another blog specifically with a message that Anna, Elias' mom, has asked that we spread widely. Please read both and pass them along. I am copying the poem Anna chose here, so that we can all reflect on love and light and pass it along.

A poem of Hafiz

When

The violin

Can forgive the past


It starts singing.


When the violin can stop worrying

About the future


You will become

Such a drunk laughing nuisance


That God

Will then lean down

And start combing you into

His Hair.


When the violin can forgive

Every wound caused by

Others


The heart starts

Singing.
