Present Tense
This is the time
for you to deeply compute
the impossibility
that there is anything
but Grace.¹
— Hafiz
Expressions of Joy writings use present tense even when quoting ancient words.
This custom is a nod to the eternal Now, and a recognition that Truth is always true and Now is the only time. It further reminds us that:
Life, like Truth, is eternal.
