Clearly it is quite difficult to love other people for the sake of God rather than just for their own sake. And yet, the following poem has always moved me greatly; it paints the perfect image of what, for me, would be the ideal relationship.
The Day Sky
-Hafiz
Let us be like
Two falling stars in the day sky.
Let no one know of our sublime beauty
As we hold hands with God
And burn
Into a sacred existence that defies -
That surpasses
Every description of ecstasy
And love.
