In the presence of absence

“Absence will tell you the importance of presence.”

The presence of absence, Linda Gregg

In the Presence of Absence - Mahmoud Darwish

To become spring means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence means accepting the risk of absence. | वसंत बनने का अर्थ है सर्दी के जोखिम को स्वीकार करना। उपस्थिति बनने का अर्थ है अनुपस्थिति के जोखिम को स्वीकार करना। | vasant banne ka arth hai sardi ke jokhim ko sveekaar karna.upasthiti banne ka arth hai anupasthiti ke jokhim ko sveekaar karna. | بہار بننے کا مطلب ہے سردیوں کا خطرہ قبول کرنا۔ موجودگی کا مطلب غیر موجودگی کے خطرے کو قبول کرنا ہے۔

Mahmoud Darwish, who died in 2008 at the age of sixty-seven, was best and heroically known for his complex perspective on political and spiritual borders — as both a poet and a spokesman for his Palestinian people.

Dreams will find their dreamers and all a dreamer has to do is remember.. Mahmoud Darwish, from "In The Presence of Absence"
