Rumi was a 13th-century Persian poet, jurist, theologian, and Sufi mystic. 
Rumi's importance is considered to transcend national and ethnic borders. 
Iranians, Turks, Cappadocian Greeks, Afghans, Tajiks, and other Central 
Asian Muslims as well as the Muslims of South Asia have greatly appreciated 
his spiritual legacy in the past seven centuries. His poems have been widely 
translated into many of the world's languages and transposed into various 
formats (Wiki)

 My 'take' when I read it and put it into my sig lines was that seeking is 
part of the spiritual journey paired with a reassurance... as we seek so are 
we sought.

When I stand before God at the end of my life I would hope that I have not a 
single bit of talent left and could say, "I used everything You gave me." 
attributed to Erma Bombeck

Thomas Merton writes, “People may spend their whole lives climbing the 
ladder of success only to find, once they reach the top, that the ladder is 
leaning against the wrong wall.”

"What you seek is seeking you." - Rumi
