The Answer

"All of your frustrations are due
to your seeking your wishes.
If you didn't, all wishes would
come to you like offerings.

Love all of the Beloved's ways,
and not just Her affection,
so that the coquettish Beloved
would come to you as a desperate lover."

Divan Shamsi Tabrizi 323
Love's Ripening pp. 11-13
