“Let the waters settle and you will see the moon and the stars mirrored in your own being”
— Rumi

Simplified Meaning:
When things get chaotic and you feel overwhelmed, it's like water that's all stirred up and muddy. It's hard to see clearly through it. If you take some time to calm down and let things settle, like when the water becomes still again, you'll be able to see things more clearly. For example, imagine you're really stressed about a problem at work or school. If you pause, take a few deep breaths, and give yourself a moment to relax, you might come up with better solutions and see the situation more clearly, just like how you can see the moon and stars reflected in a calm, clear pond at night. So, in difficult times, try to find some peace and quiet; it will help you understand yourself and your situation better.
